I like to spend one class period reviewing for an exam. During this class period I typically present students with an "exam preparation handout" that contains an outline of the material covered on the exam and also suggestions for studying and for taking the exam. I spend some class time going through that outline with them, and I like to leave the remainder of the class period for answering questions from students who have already begin studying. I also usually have some questions and examples in mind to go over, based on areas where students have struggled, in case students do not have enough questions to last for the entire period. I do provide a review sheet to students, and I sometimes but not always provide additional review problems and solutions. Student participation in any review activities is optional.
