- At least one paragraph that reflects on how you prepared for the quiz.
- I prepared for the quiz by looking over my notes in my notebook and reviewing them for a bit. I also looked at and completed the practice quiz which gave me a good understanding of what the quiz might look like and what type of questions I could expect. These two methods along with asking Mr. Musallam concepts that I didn’t completely understand helped clarify my questions. In addition, I rewatched the video on Electronic Configuration to hear the process being explained again.
- At least one paragraph that reflects on what how you felt during the quiz. What did you understand? What did you struggle with? etc.
- When I first got the quiz, I was obviously a bit nervous. Doing the Stoich part first, the easiest quiz section in my opinion, helped me calm down a bit and put aside my nervousness. I understood the majority of the questions but a few stumped me. Aside from a reading error and some confusing terms, the main problem I had was trying to remember the difference between finding Ionization Energy and Atomic Radius. I would later solve the problem by remembering examples done previously but the time spent doing that definitely chewed up some clock.
- At least one paragraph that describes things a few things you will do differently in preparing for our next quiz. If you what you did this time completely worked for you, clearly describe your strategy.
- I think what I did this time worked well. I will continue to review my notes, complete the practice quiz, and ask Mr. Musallam if I have any questions regarding the next quiz cycle. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” The method I used worked and repeating it again seems to be a good idea. In my case, my approach for studying for quizzes is working so I’ll keep doing what I’m doing until it no longer works.
