 Assessment quiz
Quizzes are a very importante part of the “Climate Change & Sustainability” Course –
they give You some feedback how are You mastering the concepts and competences of
the Course, but are also very useful for us, since they indicate in wich areas students
might have more difficulties and, thus, need more explanations or help from us.
 As a general rule, prepare Your quizz in advance – choose a quiet place and try to avoid
any interruption during the duration of the quizz.
 Please remember that, by the end of the quizz, You can review Your answers and try the
quizz again, in the case You are aiming a better grade.
