Recall Exercises

A topic's Recall exercises test your knowledge of the subject at hand through a series of multiple-choice questions. The MyLab grades your Recall answers and posts the grades in the Student Details report.

Generally, you work through the Recall exercises after viewing the Review Materials. (See Writing Skills Topics for more information.)

To work through Recall Exercises:

  1. Click the Recall Exercise link or the Begin button to start an exercise set.
  2. Select the answer to the question and click the Submit button.

    The MyLab lets you know if the answer is correct or incorrect, and, for an incorrect answer, also displays the correct answer in bold green.

    Tip: For more information on the subject being covered in the exercise, choose an option from the Need a refresher? drop-down list at the bottom of the page.

  3. Click the Next Question button to continue.
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to complete the set.
  5. (Optional) At the end of the set, click the Show Results button to view which questions you answered correctly and incorrectly.

Note: Once you start work on a Recall exercise, the Begin button changes to New Set or Resume. A Resume button means you stopped midway through a set and clicking Resume will pick up where you left off. A New Set button means you have additional sets to complete; click the New Set button to start the next set.

After completing the Recall exercises, the next step is to complete the Apply Exercises.
