PACIFIC ISLAND PEOPLES- ANTH 135 -
KNOWLEDGE SURVEY - LESSONS 8
- FALL'09

This is a Knowledge Survey rather than a test. There are no right or wrong answers. While you will not be graded on this survey, please be very candid in your responses!

By completing this survey, both at the beginning and at the end of the lessons your instructor will be able to gauge your initial level of knowledge and then measure the amount of knowledge you gain during the semester. This information will help your instructor modify and improve the course and program.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Read each statement carefully and then choose a response based on the following instructions:

Choose 1=V.LOW as your response to the item if you are not at all confident in your skills in the area and do not feel you can demonstrate these skills on a test/essay/research paper.

Choose 2=LOW as your response to the item if you feel only minimally confident about your skills in the area and can barely demonstrate these skills at a reasonable level on a test/essay/research paper.

Choose 3=MEDIUM as your response to the item if you feel fairly confident about your skills in the area and can demonstrate these skills at a reasonable level on a test/essay/research paper.

Choose 4=HIGH as your response to the item if you feel quite confident about your skills in the area and can demonstrate these skills at a high level on a test/essay/research paper.

Choose 5=V.HIGH as your response to the item if you feel extremely confident about your skills in the area and can demonstrate these skills at a very high level on a test/essay/research paper.
