Environmental Science Semester A

Environmental Science Semester A

Guide Sheets:

It also has ideas on how to do some stuff in Courseware. 


Each State has its version of this class. Make sure you use the correct name for your unit. See if a page is made for your state on the unit activity landing page. I did not know there was more than one version of the course when this guide sheet was made, so I don't know which state matches what is here by default.  I am only trying to help, not confuse you.

Students unlock Mastery Tests by redoing the tutorial that goes with it.

Discussions can be redone by adding more to your response. You have to message your teacher so she can regrade it. Course and Unit Activities show up each time they are resubmitted. Discussions can't be formally resubmitted. The teacher has to go into the gradebook, find the discussion, read what you wrote, and manually add points. 

Post-tests and the End of Semester test can be taken twice and require the teacher to reset them. The reset has to be 24 hours after completion of the first try.
