SRC Quiz

Dear all

I understand that some of you may have read books not in your 'recommended reading' lists for various reasons.

Fret not.

1. Continue to log in and complete the SRC.
2. In SRC, look for the book you have read.
3. And take the test.

The book not in the list?

Fret not. You'd have to read another book, or take a test on a book that they have previously read.

1. Go to http://src.scholastic.com/bookexpert/
2. And search if the book you're reading or have read are on the list.
3. On the list? Take the test.
4. Not on the list? Find another book to read.

For those who need a step-by-step guide to assess the SRC, there are PPT slides on AsknLearn.

Hope this clarifies.
