What Kind of calculator do I need for this subject?
A financial calculator
A scientific calculator
My phone calculator
Don't worry I'll be fine :-)
Am I allowed to have a formula sheet for assessments?
No, not at all. Students should memorise all the formulae
Yes, the allowed formula sheet is available on Moodle
Yes, students can prepare their own formula sheet
No! The assessments are all open book!
How can I find out which questions will appear at my exam?
Send an email to the lecturer and ask her to please kindly let you know what to study for your exam
I ask her at the beginning of every topic, whether that topic is important or not
Any concept that lecturer covers is important.
Ah.. never mind..
But what is exactly important?
I will wait until the revision week, and then I'll find out
The lecturer will not waste time on unimportant topics. Anything that she covers, is likely to appear in the assessments.
If I want to keep track of important concepts, I should follow lectures weekly, rather than wait until the revision week.
Don't worry..I'll manage ..
What should I expect to see in my assessments?
Covid-19 News
Questions similar to my tutorials
Questions similar to what is covered in lecture slides
Examples that the lecturer solves in class
What happens if I use my phone calculator rather than the advised calculator?
Nothing.. but the lecturer likes to pick on me for no reason
I might end up taking selfies during the test
Functions keys on my phone look different to the function keys on the advised calculator. If I don't practice how to use my calculator, I won't be able to solve the questions during the assessment.
Are my class tests and final exam, open-book?
Yes, students can bring all the materials plus the book.
It doesn't matter this semester, because we do assessments from home, so I can use whatever I want :-)
No, they are closed-book assessments. I am only allowed to have the formula sheet
How can they ever realise if I have my book with me during the exam?
The exam will be invigilated.
There is little chance they realise if I do so...
Do I have to complete Academic Integrity module?
That's optional.
Only if the student is in the mood for it.
Yes, by the end of week 3.
