An easy way to stay up to date with material in CSC104.

In my opinion the quizzes are the best way to ensure that students stay up to date with the course work. Since they are every week except the week we have tests on, students make sure that they pay attention to what is being taught every week knowing they will be tested on it in the following week. When the tests come its easier for me as well to study for it since I have been studying for the quizzes weekly. It also ensures that students play around on DrRacket more which helps them to understand the program even better. I am pretty sure if there were no quizzes weekly I would have to spend more time studying for tests than I have to now and would not be as comfortable in using Racket as I am now. Apart from helping students stay up to date with what is being taught in lectures, it is an easy way too boost our grades, since the quizzes are generally easy and cover the basic concepts taught in lecture. It also ensures that students come to their tutorials to solve and ask their TA's questions.
