Quizzes are cumulative; this means that quiz questions can and will cover any material covered up to and including the current module.Quizzes can be retaken until you earn a grade you are proud of OR until the stated availability date. If a quiz is labeled as MANDATORY, you must complete it to be eligible to successfully complete the course.Quizzes are open-book unless they are proctored through HonorLock. That said, to get the most out of the class and to accurately determine your understanding of course concepts — and areas you may want further explanation of from your instructor and/or tutors — I suggest you complete the quizzes without assistance. Remember, you can retake quizzes so you risk nothing by getting a clear picture of your strengths and determining where you have gaps in your understanding; it can only help you as you build a solid foundation of writing skills you will need throughout college and, likely, through your personal and professional life.
