This study guide is intended to assist distance learning students in their independent
studies. The course has been broken down into eight lessons each of which should
be considered as approximately one week of study for a full time student. Solve the
reinforcement problems verifying your answer with the suggested solution contained
at the back of the distance learning pack. When the lesson is completed, repeat the
same procedure for each of the following lessons.
At the end of lessons 2, 4, 6, and 8 there is a comprehensive assignment that you
should complete and submit for marking to the distance learning administrator.
SUBMISSION PROCEDURE
1. After you have completed a comprehensive assignment clearly identify each
question and number your pages.
2. If you do not understand a portion of the course content or assignment question,
indicate this in your answer so that your marker can respond to your problem
areas. Be as specific as possible.
3. Arrange the order of your pages by question number and fix them securely to
the data sheet provided. Adequate postage must be affixed to the envelope.
4. While waiting for your assignment to be marked and return to you, continue to
work through the next two lessons and comprehensive assignment.
On the completion of the last comprehensive assignment, a two week period of
revision should be carried out of the whole course using the material in the revision
section of the study pack. At the completion of this period the final Mock
Examination period should be completed under examination conditions. This should
be sent to the Distance Learning Administrator to arrive in Nairobi at least five
weeks before the date of your sitting the KASNEB Examinations. This paper will be
marked and posted back to you within two weeks of receipt of the Distance Learning
Administrator.
