Progress evaluations are open-book assignments that test your knowledge and understanding of the course material.
There are ten progress evaluations in this course; they appear after each lesson. There may be true/false, multiple choice, and/or short answer questions. Each progress evaluation is worth 20 points. There is always a writing assignment designed to encourage you to think deeply about the course material and to find ways that it can apply to your life and work. Your final grade is composed of the points you earn on progress evaluations.
Note: You must submit all assigned work in sequence (Lesson 1, then Lesson 2, etc.), and you cannot submit more than three (3) assignments in a 7-day period.
After each progress evaluation has been scored, you will receive a lesson report. The lesson report gives you your score on the lesson and provides feedback and comments on your essay. After you receive your score, you should then study the lesson commentary and make certain that you understand the author's analysis of important concepts in the reading assignment. Both the feedback on your progress evaluations and the lesson commentary will help you prepare for the exams.
Note: The progress evaluations for this course are instructor-evaluated and require written responses. These should be completed using Microsoft Word 97 or a more recent version of Word. More detailed instructions for completing the progress evaluations can be found by clicking the link below.
