The top terms were:
- Abraham Lincoln
- Industrial Revolution
- Napoleon Bonaparte
- Isaac Newton
- Declaration of Independence
- Charles Darwin
As with the pop quizzes, I scored each answer on a 4-point scale, then added up the results. The high score in the class was 42 out of a possible 48 (before extra credit) again, which I used as the 100% mark (which again raised everyone’s grades a lot). The median score was between B and B-. Here’s how the grade scale worked out:
Grade | minimum points | distribution |
A+ | 42 | |
A | 39.8 | 20% |
A- | 37.8 | |
B+ | 34.8 | |
B | 30.3 | 40% |
B- | 27.3 | |
C+ | 24.3 | |
C | 19.8 | 30% |
C- | 16.8 | |
D+ | 13.8 | |
D | 9.3 | 10% |
D- | 6.3 | |
F | 0 |
If you compare it to the last quiz, you can see some movement from B to A and some movement from D to C. But not much.
