The True and False Questions, Fill In The Blank Questions, and the Multiple Choice questions will be similar to the questions encountered in the collection of quiz questions encountered during the semester in the series of quizzes published during the first half of the semester. These categories of questions will focus on skills and concepts covered in the course textbook and Video Tutorial Lectures assigned during the semester.
If a student has technical issues accessing the Final Exam, they should report it immediately. The Canvas systems record all activity in quizzes and exams. A student experiencing technical issues in the exam must report it immediately and exit the quiz. A student who has spent significant time on the Final Exam and who starts to experience technical issues may have a significant delay in being granted an opportunity to retake the exam while the legitimacy of the claim is investigated. If there is a technical issue, most technical problems will occur at the beginning or early in the exam. Late issues may be considered suspicious and require a longer review process.
