Midterm Exam

The students took an open note exam with a series of ten questions based on their readings and in-class lectures. Unfortunately the average grade was a 6 out of 10. I'm not sure if that's due to their lack of study, or my clarity in question. Either way, the exam is only worth 10% of their final grade. I've also decided to grade on a curve. When we return from spring break, I will go over the exam responses thoroughly and answer any questions they may have. Additionally, I intend to load their midterm grades on PatriotWeb so they have a clear indication of their progress in this course.
