If the TA is unable to help you, contact the instructor. Evaluation You will be evaluated with three noncumulative tests consisting of approximately 60 multiple-choice questions. However, you should also read all text materials that are assigned for each test. You will find that the texts overlap substantially with the material covered in class and provide more in-depth coverage of topics than is possible in class. If for extraordinary reasons you miss a test, you must notify the instructor as soon as possible after the test .

Probably the most important is utilizing spaced practice instead of massed practice. Spaced practice refers to doing a relatively small amount of practice at frequent intervals whereas massed practice is doing all of your practicing in one session. Thus, if you want to learn anything, either playing the piano or hockey or cognitive psychology, you will learn it more quickly and with less effort if you learn in small chunks at frequent intervals.
