Sum21AED12C23- Part 1Red

Hi Everyone, Welcome Back to Day 12.

How was your weekend?

I hope it was okay.

Um Did you get your um did you get your

presentation materials done?

Did you turn in your video or whatever you have?

Did you did you get that done and uploaded?

Like I hoped by last night, you know, by sunday

night I wanted everyone to get the material is done

so that I could, hopefully I've I've already gotten them

and I can start uploading them if you haven't already,

make sure you do send your materials by email to

me again, thomas Webster ati wa dot dot KR um

Send it to me and I'll and I'll upload it

onto the cyber campus and hopefully we can get all

that going for the presentations.

And then really if that's if we if you've done

that already good job Pat yourself on the back.

Uh And that means that all you need to think

about then now is you need to think about uh

the exam tomorrow, the final exam, and then of course

you get to watch other people's presentations on Wednesday, the

day after tomorrow.

Okay. And that will be our last real class, you

know, except for the grading where I get to talk

to each of you about your grades on thursday to

make sure we're all done because then I got to

fly out of the fly out quickly afterwards to go

to do my sabbatical.

So I'm kind of excited about that, you can imagine,

but but you know, you've heard when you've you know

when you've got to when you've got to fly out

and you're you know, you're excited about something or you're

thinking about the future, you have to slow down and

take your time and finish the last things that you

need to do before you go.

And that's true for you guys to, we're at the

end of the semester and maybe you're like this month

we're done and I can go enjoy my summer.

So I just want to go, well hold on, slow

down. Make sure you finish up right?

So you get the grade that you deserve, you know

that you want.

Hopefully and you earn.

So again take your time.

Hopefully you've already uploaded the presentation materials.

Uh and if you haven't, please do that by the

deadline. Um Today I'm going to tell you what you

need to know about the final exam.

Just like I did with the midterm exam.

Um I'm going to talk about the format and then

kind of go over each of the articles for you.

Just, just the basics of each article and and just

like the midterm exam classes that we had.

Um class 23 today will be these videos.

And I don't I don't think I'll need four.

I think it will probably be last just three I

imagine. I don't know, I'm just starting this, but Uh,

but I'm going to use class 23 or less than

23 For, to tell you about the exam again.

And then less than 24 will be on zoom.

Just like the bid term exam.

I'm going to give you a chance for you to

ask any questions about the article or in all of

the articles that we're going to have on the exam

for the anything about the exam itself.

You can, you can ask me of course.

You know, you can ask um in many other ways

you can ask on the help board and you can

ask questions by email if it's kind of more of

a personal question.

But I really do hope that if you do ask

questions, you ask them on the help board so that

other students can see your questions and my answers and

it can help them too.

So don't be shy.

Use the help board if you have a question, but

again you also have a chance to ask any questions

that come up to you after when you watch these

videos. Okay.

And again on the fy I'll make it clear to

you exactly when the time we need to meet for

that. It will be the same as it was for

the midterm.

Okay so let's talk about the format of the final

exam. The format of the exam I guess before I

talk about the actual format and kind of remind you

about the question types.

I want to talk about the timing of the exam.

The final exam will be tomorrow and it will be

just like the midterm exam.

It will be a two hour exam.

So you have a nice comfortable space of two hours

to take the exam.

I hope that was enough for you for the midterm

exam. I hope you were able to uh you know,

to get through everything and give good answers and you

feel happy with, you know, with how long it took

you to do things.

Uh if not take note, remember what happened on the

midterm exam and adjust yourself because it's the same space

you're going to see that there's, there are some changes

to the exam, so it will be a little bit

different. Okay, but the basic exam will be the same.

Okay, It's a two hour exam and you can see

here just like I reminded you, just like I told

you for the midterm exam, This two hour exam is

an open book style.

Of course we don't have a book, but you can

use any of your notes from the course.

Okay. Anything, any materials that I gave you, any notes

that you made yourself study questions and answers discussions that

you had with other members in your group.

You can look at all of that stuff okay, but

you cannot talk or communicate in any way to anyone

else. So that means you of course can't just talk

to somebody and ask them a question on local talk.

You know someone to help you.

That's again that's cheating.

And you're also not allowed to text like text something

or even ask for something like, oh do you have

this? I can't find it.

Can you give me that file?

No, no, everything is there.

You should have your own materials and everything else is

on the cyber campus.

You can access it.

Okay? So do not, you are not allowed to to

interact or communicate with anyone uh during the exam and

that includes anyone in your house to any of your

family members or friends.

Anyone know humans, No animals.

How many ways can I say it?

Um I've actually had this discussion with a student before

who she said oh I didn't understand.

I thought I could, I was like really you thought

that no you can't communicate.

You can't use your you can't interact with any other

any other living creature.

Okay Can you, I'm trying to think and you interact

with a non living creature.

Yeah, I'm going to talk about that again.

You can you are allowed to go look on the

internet for any information, right?

You can, if you don't know the meaning of a

word, you can go on dictionary dot com and look

it up.

If you don't know something you want to check the

author's background, you can do any of that stuff.

That's okay.

But what you cannot do is use anything on the

internet to help you create your sentences.

Okay so translation programs and anything like that.

Anything that you're going to use like that you cannot

do it.

You have to use you have to type your own

sentences in english.

So you cannot use you know type them in chinese

or thai or Vietnamese or you can't tie that.

Type them in korean any language and then get your

english out and put that on the exam.

You cannot do it.

I may catch it if you do it.

I may not if you do consequences.

Very serious and get a zero.

You can feel the course lots of problems.

Don't do it please.

Okay. Honor system.

I won't be watching you.

I will not be monitoring you.

I will be on zoom during the exam in case

you have any problems.

But I will not be talking with you were watching

you in any way.

Just like the midterm exam.

Okay. All right.

The format of the exam like I said is similar

very similar to the uh to the midterm but different.

Uh if you look you can see that the mid

the final exam is 20 questions.

What? Really?

Yeah. 20 questions not 25.

You remember the midterm exam was 25.

So good news.

The final exam has five less questions but it's still

two hours long.

So five less questions is good.

Um You can see on the on the midterm exam

we had three parts to the exam but on the

final exam we only have two parts.

Part one is called using skills and part two is

called synthesizing.

And you remember both of these?

Because they were the two parts two of the parts

they were on the exam, they were on the midterm

exam, I should say.

So they're on here too.

But what I've done is kind of combined the the

part one from the midterm review reviewing skills and part

two using skills, they're just using skills now because again,

for article number eight that we had one of our

four articles, I didn't really kind of guide you.

So I'm not really reviewing so much for those, that's

more like your kind of thing.

And I'll tell you about that right now, if you

notice that part one using skills, you can see that

we have the article article number five is the first

one where I have three questions for each of these.

Should we be worried about artificial intelligence?

Was article five And that's on the exam.

There's, there seems to be no pattern.

That's the, that was article# six.

Article number seven Yeah, you can see I give you

a preview there.

Stop doing that.

Article number seven was the board game that turns feminism

into a joke.

And then you notice maybe a surprise.

Maybe not a surprise to uh, you see what I've

done Article eight for Article# eight I gave you

three choices.

I gave you three possibilities for your group to work

on. Guess what?

I put all three of them on the exam.

I'm going to ask you questions about all three.

Really? Yeah, you can see how south Korea turbocharged.

I was the first woman of color in space.

Tesla autopilot critics say I'm going to ask you questions

about all three of those three questions for each one

and again I did.

You did your group?

Go ahead and and look at the other two.

Like I recommend it.

Well if you didn't, your, you can do that now.

You have until tomorrow to kind of look at them.

Okay. If you remember on the midterm exam, I gave

you two completely new readings you've never seen before.

Well now I'm not giving you new readings on the

exam at all.

So you have time now from when you're watching this

and at least until until tomorrow, when you take the

exam, you can go look at all three articles and

get ready just like any.

So they're kind of knew but not new.

Again, I'm not helping you directly with them.

You are using your toolkit yourself.

So that's why this is, this whole section is kind

of using skills.

Okay. And the last section, part two, you can see

that there are two questions for synthesizing.

Not one On the midterm exam, I just gave you

one synthesizing question.

The last 125 for you to compare the two new

readings. Well now I'm going to ask you two questions

that are going to be about any of the articles

that are on the exam.

So I'm gonna I'm gonna ask you to think about

those two or three side by side and I'll ask

you some questions about it and I'm and you notice

I'm not telling you the kind of question I'm asking

you. So you have to read the question carefully and

make sure you answer it.

Okay. It's not I'm not going to just give it

to you like the midterm where I said how are

they similar or different?

You don't know what I'm going to ask you but

I am going to compare them.

Okay. So you can see that the exam this time

has only 20 questions and the score total is out

of 80 points, not 100.

And you can see part one, Part one is the

main part of the exam.

72 out of the 80 points will come from the,

from part one.

From those three questions for each of the articles we

want to we had in the in the in the

course. In the second half of the course, Part two

is going to be two more questions for the for

the remaining eight points.

Okay, so a little different.

A little different here.

Right, well, um just to remind you about that two

part answer that you need to do on the exam

and complete sentence that you do.

I'll tell you, I'll go over one more time and

the next we're getting near the end and the next

part I'll go over it a little bit more.

But generally speaking remember you need to have that two

part answer for all for everything you've done in our

course and by the way, I think you should do

this in life.

I do it and it drives my wife nuts a

little bit and my son, they do it to back

to me now where when we say something, we kind

of explain it just a little bit unless it's so

clear you don't need to.

But but again, all of these questions on the exam,

you need that two part answer where you say here's

what I think is the right answer and sometimes there's

really only one reasonable answer I think.

But some often.

So at least half the questions, maybe you could give

a different answer and I really read them and see

if they make sense with the reading.

So your answer is your answer.

You think it's the right answer may not be the

one I think, but I'm I'm going to read it

with an open mind, but I need to see why

you chose that.

I want to make sure that you understand why you're

guessing something I don't expect.

So you need that two part answer to come together

to get the full point.

Okay? All right.

I'll tell you more about it in part two.
