1. Although some people will be working in pairs, each person's score will be determined individually.

2. Altogether, AP review will count for 100 points (i.e., one test). Equal weights will be assigned to creativity (25 points), accuracy (25 points), value added to the review process for your classmates (25 points), and multiple-choice questions (25 points).

3. The first three components (creativity, accuracy, and value added) will be prorated equally between the two partners for those working in pairs. The multiple-choice component will be scored individually as described in #4.

4. Each person (not each pair, each person) will write at least four (4) multiple-choice questions from his review area. These are due no later than Friday, April 30, 1999, for everybody. However, if those who are presenting during the week of April 26 could try to have their questions turned in before class time on the day they are presenting, that would be helpful. (There is no point penalty for not turning questions in before April 30.) Be sure to include an answer key with your questions. Do not "lift" questions directly from other sources-you will learn much more if you write up your own. You may, of course, see me for examples of questions to use for inspiration. Each question should have 5 possible answers (A through E).

5. In addition to the 100 points, you will be expected (for HW scoring) to work at least 7 multiple choice and 1 free-response question each weeknight during the AP review period. Questions and answers will be handed out each day, and you will be on your own to check your answers and learn from your mistakes. You will be required to keep a daily log of your work to show the effort that you have put into this process. (Forms for this purpose will be distributed during the week of April 26.)
