Introduction and How This Course Works

Self-Test Questions

Not every lesson this week will have self-test questions, but many will, and as we said in the video, we encourage you to answer them all to help to reinforce the material.

This first question is just for fun, to give you a chance to see how the system works. Remember you can answer the questions as many times as you like and there is no penalty for incorrect answers.
