Math 010 online work that is due
today at the start of class:
• Gateway Homework #3 (turn in
worksheet now, while I take roll)
• Section 1.2/1.8 Online Homework
Any questions on the
homework
for Sections 1.2/1.8
before we start
today’s review for the
Gateway Quiz?
Homework Assignment due at start
of next class:
• Take the Practice Gateway at least once before class.
(You can take it as many times as you like, and only
your best score counts for points.)
• You should also try Practice Quiz 1 at least once
before the next class period. (This is different from
the Practice Gateway quiz.
• You have until the class session after next to re-do
Practice Quiz 1 as many times as you want, and you’ll
have a chance to ask about any problems on it before
we take the Gateway Quiz at the next class session.)
Quiz coming up next class session:
Gateway Quiz, first try:
•
•
•
•
8 questions, 35 minutes.
Online, but you’ll get a paper worksheet for showing your work
No calculators
We’ll be reviewing for this in class today.
• Answers must be completely correct, with fractions in simplest form.
Reminders:
– Passing the Gateway Quiz with a 100% (8/8) score at some point
during the semester is a requirement for passing this class.
– You may take the quiz multiple times until you pass.
– Only your best score out of all attempts on the “real” gateway will
count towards your overall grade. (And since you’ll eventually get
100%, there’s 80 points towards you course score!)
– The second attempt will also be given in class 3 weeks from now. After
that, there will be weekly opportunities to take the quiz outside of
class.
– In previous semesters, all students who have passed the other
requirements for the course have also passed the Gateway
requirement. (The average student took 4-5 attempts to pass.)
You have had a number of practice Gateway questions mixed in
with your regular homework assignments, but you should also
take Practice Gateways before the next class session:
• 8 questions, same type as on the actual Gateway.
• Time limit of 35 minutes, same as the actual Gateway.
• Can take it as many times as you want.
• Best score counts for that percent of 8 points. (Each time
you take the practice quiz, your overall course score will be
updated to only include you best attempt.)
• Additional paper versions of practice Gateways can be
picked up in the open lab from any TA or teacher.
REMEMBER: Gateway study/help available every
MTWTh from 8:00 a.m. – 7:30 p.m. in Room 203 JHSW..
