DRAFT
    PROFICIENCY EVALUATION 120-1
    A "PUBLIC", SELF CHECKING EVALUATION 1
    (An OPPORTUNITY to detect and correct IMPORTANT things you don't understand!)
If you have not already done so, be sure to read the explanation of the purpose of proficiency evaluations.  The following is the first draft of the best Assessment 1 I can write, i.e. it has the best and most important questions I can think of on the first two learning modules.  (Like the gradeable Assessment 1 will be, this evaluation is derived directly from PreAssessment 1following the "rules" specified at the beginning of the PreAssessment.)  I place it in the "public domain", so that everyone can not only evaluate their current learning but can also detect mistakes and go back and correct them before taking this online evaluation again.  You should keep correcting mistakes until you UNDERSTAND %100 of these questions.

To consider yourself proficient in knowledge and understanding of concepts of LMs I and II, you should be able to answer all of the following questions. You should also be familiar with all the other answers that are associated with Cyberspace and be able to recognize the few answers that have noting to do with the subject; I call them "nonsense answers".  (Since this evaluation is to provide you, individually, with information on your proficiency in the subject, you should NOT prejudice your feedback.  Therefore, DO NOT GUESS on questions whose answers you do not know;  leave them unchecked; this will give you feedback on the questions you do think you know.  After you have completed the Evaluation, click on the link, "Correct Evaluation", at the end of the questions.  You will get an immediate response informing you of the percentage of your answers that were correct.  You will also see the answers that were incorrect; questions that you left blank will be marked "undefined".  If you do not make 100% on this Evaluation, you should note your mistakes, study the Learning Modules and discover the origin of those mistakes, and retake the Evaluation -- do this until you receive 100%.   Remember, it is also important to realize that knowing (and understanding) the answers to these few question may be enough suggest  "proficiency", but it is not enough for "mastery"; for mastery you should understand all the concepts covered on this Proficiency Evaluation as well as the associated PreAssessment 1.   On both you should (1) understand the other possible question answers (that are not the correct answer to the particular question) as well as (2) recognize those answers which are "nonsense answers", i.e. that have nothing to do with the course subject matter.
