QUIZZES:
There are 14 quizzes. 10 points for each quiz.
Questions are multiple choice and come from the textbook and PPTs.
Quizzes are not cumulative and can be completed any time throughout the course, however,
recommendation is to complete the quiz with the other assignments.
There are nine (9) question and answer response assignments. Ten points (10) for each
For each day, a question and answer response is assigned, in a Word document create a question
relating to the reading(s). The question you create needs to be open-ended and at a synthesis,
analysis, and/or evaluation level. Your response will be in the form of 10 bullet point statements
(a 2-4 sentence response for each statement) accompanied by an APA citation from the source
where the statement was generated. Of the 10 bullet point statements, three (3) of the bullet
points need to be complemented by a relatable experience. This will be an additional 2-4
sentences. One reference can be the text the others need to be valid and reliable source. Please
cite accordingly using APA!!!! The idea is to take the information from the reading(s), analyze
2
it, and demonstrate that you know how, when, and where, the information is relevant. Your
response will be approximately one and a half to two pages. Proper heading includes: Name,
Date, and HLH 265. You will be graded according to the rubric below. Please read it!!!! (IA1-
