Subject: Final Exam 10 a.m. tommorrow (Wednesday morning)...

Hi Maya students,

     The final exam study guide is now finalized, finally.

     You have been seeing it's incomplete version and can now
         see it's finalized version at URL:

     I have a 6 p.m. meeting that goes for a few hours, so I know this
final exam will not be too long for the written portion, for the following
five reasons:

     i. there is very little time before 10 a.m. tommorrow morning,
        and I am sleep deprived enough today I know I can't pull an
        all nighter or only sleep a couple hours, and

    ii. it is the first time I have ever taught Maya or given a Maya
        final, so there are no past semester final exams to take
        questions from, and

   iii. since we have had 10 quizzes and there will be many questions
        similar to or identical to some of those questions, most of
        you will be able to answer them fairly easily and fast, and

    iv. the solar system hands-on portion of the test using a cart
        laptop you have done quite a few times in class and hopefully
        done it quite a few times on your own (Sun, Earth, and Moon), and

     v. only 3 students have sent me their final project, the open-ended
        final Maya assignment, so most of you still have work to do on
        that.

   Be sure to read the study guide closely,  You are allowed to have
   a hand-written cheat sheet to use for the SUN, EARTH, MOON and the
   H A N D S hands-on portion of the exam.

   I will put a link toward the very top of the web page so you can
      see the examples of the student's final assignments that have been
      submitted so far.
