Format of Exam
The exam will be a mixture of multiple choice (from lecture, text, and atlas), Ture/False (from lecture and text), Fill-in-the-Blank (from lecture and text), Matching (from lecture), short answers (from lecture and text), and Map Skills exercises (based on maps from atlas, text, and maps I present in lecture).

I. Multiple Choice
        A. From Lecture--use the terms listed above to study for this portion
        B. From Text--use your Study Guide (I will actually pull a question or two directly from the Study
                Guide for multiple choice, True/False, Fill-ins, and Short Answers), and the terms listed
                above
        C. From Atlas--these questions will be crafted from precisely the explanations I give about each
                map when I display it in lecture--don't just look at the maps, READ them to identify what
                the cartographer is trying to tell you, what is the main point?

II. True/False
        A. From Lecture--go through your lecture notes and outlines and try to determine my main point or
                points, my "thesis" or "theses," these will predominate my True/False questions
        B. From Text--use your Study Guide, and, apply the same technique describe above to your text

III. Fill-in-the-Blank
        A. From Lecture--use the terms listed above
        B. From Text--use your Study Guide

IV. Matching--use the terms listed above

V. Short Answers
        A. From Lecture--use your outlines to organize your notes, ad you should be able to identify
                several short answer possibilities.  Short Answer questions will require 3-5 sentence answers
                and will usually ask you to explain some phenomenon and to idetify its causes or effects, or
                simply to identify a person, event, or phenomenon which will require you to provide the
                who, what, where, how, why, as well as assess the significance.
        B. From Text--use your Study Guide--same rules as above apply

VI. Map Skills--you will be provided with one or more blank maps, usually copied from the blank maps
        provided in your Study Guide, which you will use to locate and identify various physical, political
        geographical features, covered by the maps in your atlas, in your textbook, and by the extra maps
        that I display for you in lecture that are not included in your atlas or text.  For this test, it would
        behoove you to familiarize yourself with the following:

Sample Maps
North America
The Colonies
Africa and the Atlantic World

See also the map on p. 18 of your "Out of Many" printed study guide.

VII. Good Luck!
