For your Module 4 SLP you will be completing a multiple-choice quiz based on the required readings from Modules 3 and 4.

Remember: Be sure to take notes as you read through the materials from each module, as your quiz is based on all the material from both Modules 3 and 4.

Your quiz consists of 15 randomly generated multiple-choice questions worth 2 points each, for a maximum of 30 points.

Time and planning:

You will have 45 minutes minutes to complete the quiz.

You will be able to retake the quiz to improve on your score to a maximum of 2 attempts. The highest attempt score will count toward your final grade.

You cannot exit the quiz once it has started. If you experience technical problems—a dropped Internet connection, a crashed computer, or the like—while taking a quiz, first try to reconnect and re-enter the quiz.

If the quiz is still available, and your time to take the quiz has not expired, you can pick up where you left off.

Note: If the quiz has expired and you cannot finish, the attempt is still counted. Therefore, it is important to answer the questions to the best of your ability on each quiz attempt.
