anything below 70.

 ○ When working on longer assignments/activities, it’s helpful to draft them in a Google Docs then paste your work into Edmentum to
avoid lost work
○ If a test is passed, the box turns green, but that doesn’t mean the module is done. Make sure you have also completed the tutorial.

favorite!
