Must Read - Important information about your grade and Instructions for Day 8 On-Line Quiz

Because of the Snow Days and missed class time, I am changing the weight of the quizzes and dropping the final exam from the course grading.

Your grade will still be weighted at 70% Daily Performance and 30% quizzes and tests, but without the final test;  it will be the total of the 3 quizzes only. There will NO FINAL TEST. Each quiz will now be weighted at 10%.

You have already taken Quiz #1 in class, the score for that will be valued at 10% of your final grade. For example - if you scored 80% on quiz #1,  that would equal 8 points toward your final grade.

Instructions for Quiz #2:

The Identification section will be administered in class on Monday afternoon - this has already taken place.

Jinae - please see me at the beginning of class on Tuesday morning to arrange to take an alternative ID quiz.

The multiple choice section will be administered on Moodle.

   - Go to the course Moodle Site
   - Scroll down to "Topic  5" this will be labeled  Quiz #2 Japan and Korea
   - The quiz will be open to you from 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM tonight - March 19, 2018.
   - The Quiz consists of 15 multiple choice questions from key terms, study questions, Power Point          presentations, lecture, tasting, and menu terms.
   - Once you begin the quiz, you will have 15 minutes to answer all 15 questions. Be sure to have 15         minutes of uninterrupted time before you begin. Unanswered questions or unfinished quizzes               will be graded on the same scale as completed ones.
   -  You will receive only one attempt at this quiz.
   - The Moodle system will generate different randomized questions for each student, no two quizzes        will be the same.
   - Moodle will score your quiz immediately.


Currently, we are planning to administer Quiz #3 on Friday morning, March 23. This will cover information from the Vietnamese and Thai sections for the course guide. The format will be the same as Quiz #2. We will discuss the time and location of Quiz #3 in class tomorrow.

If you have any questions of concerns about this new procedure, please message me using the comment window at the bottom of this post.

Thank you ,

Chef Michael Pardus
