Online Math 70 Homework, Quiz and Test Schedule

Guidelines for success

Complete the online assignments and quizzes (called assessments) as early as possible within the given range of recommended dates.  There is a start date and an end date defined for each task.  If you stay on this schedule you should be well prepared for the on campus exams.

Spend some time reading the textbook or studying the online tutorials before you try the homework assignments.  It is usually best to complete your homework before you attempt the quiz on each portion of material.

You will be given several chances to get the homework problems right, so you may repeat the work until you get a high score (hopefully 100%).  Homework assessments may be completed at more than one sitting, as long as you do not hit the “submit” button.

Quizzes must be completed at one sitting.  There is no time limit, but when you close the quiz you do not have an opportunity to continue at a later date as with homework lessons.  You will have two attempts on each quiz.  The higher of the two scores will be used.

For Chapter 1 only, the homework lessons in educosoft are designed like quizzes.  You will not have an opportunity to close the lesson and continue at a later date.  Once you begin Chapter 2, the homework assessments will be very flexible and you will not need to complete the lesson at one sitting.
