  在尝试测验时，回顾你做错题目的视频或阅读材料。
• Some videos have questions embedded in them. Answer an in-video question before you continue watching it.
  一些视频中有嵌入式问题。在继续观看之前，先回答视频中的问题。
• Look to the world around you for examples and applications of the material, the more relevant the subject to your actual experience the better you can understand and retain.

• Prioritize self-care by taking breaks and maintaining a balance between academics and personal life. Adequate rest and relaxation are essential for optimal cognitive function.
  通过休息和保持学业与个人生活的平衡来优先考虑自我保健。充足的休息和放松对优化认知功能至关重要。

Completing the Assessments
完成评估

• Each lesson has a practice quiz, which helps you prepare for the checkpoint module quizzes. You can take them as many times as you like, and they are ungraded. If you do not achieve 100% in a practice quiz, review the relevant lesson videos and readings before attempting the checkpoint module quizzes.
  每节课都有一个练习测验，它帮助你为检查点模块测验做准备。你可以随意多次参加，而且不计分。如果你在练习测验中没有达到 100 分，请在尝试检查点模块测验前复习相关课程视频和阅读材料。
• Each module has a final quiz we call a “Checkpoint.” Each quiz consists of 10 questions and is graded. Do not accept a low score, but continue trying until you have achieved a score you’re happy with. This is one way to ensure you get as much from the course as possible.
  每个模块都有一个我们称之为“检查点”的最终测验。每个测验包含 10 个问题，并且会被评分。不要接受低分，但应继续尝试，直到你获得一个令你满意的成绩。这是确保你能从课程中获得最大收益的一种方法。
