Yоu hаve unlimited tо time tо аnswer аny 4 of the 5 given short-essay questions on the lessons in Unit 1. Do NOT answer more than 4 questions. If more than 4 questions are answered, only the first 4 answers will count. **Note: question 5 will be marked as "extra-credit" but it is NOT extra-credit. It is just one of the five questions you can choose to answer**Answers should be between 250 and 400 words each, or about 3 - 4 paragraphs each. Some questions may require longer answers than others, but do not focus simply on the length of your answer. Focus on (1) how accurate your answer is to the lessons, (2) how sufficiently you answered the given questions in the indicated word range, and (3) how clear and precise your answer is. You answer will be subjectively graded on these criteria. Excessively long answers will count against clarity, while too brief of answers will count against sufficiency. This exam uses honorlock, but is "open book" and you are encouraged to access the section readings while you compose your answers. Honorlock will prevent you from accessing any other web page besides our blackboard course and all the materials in it. You must use the Chrome browser to complete the exam.NOTE: These are not "opinion questions". They are questions specifically about what was explained in Unit 1, so your answers must be accurate to the lessons in Unit 1. While you should use much of the same language as the lessons, any full sentences copied word-for-word from the readings should be put in quotation marks, and the majority of the sentences in your answer should be your own (do not just copy from the reading).Do not copy from outside resources, especially from generative A.I.. If the instructor suspects that an answer was mostly copied from another website or from an answer given by generative A.I., the student will be penalized as detailed in the course syllabus.
