Review Session

Our midterm will be in class on October 26th. Therefore, we will be having an optional review session on October 24th at 7pm. Because we don't have an official room, the session will be in either Buchanan B318, 320, or 322. I have listed several rooms because there is always a chance someone will be occupying one. It will be in one of those three. The session will probably last until about 9 or so. Bring the notes you print out from webct. We will review by going through those. If you have any other questions (such as from the reading guide), bring those as well.

I have had some students ask about how to study. I think you want to first start with the notes you took at lecture and the notes you print out at webct. Make sure you know all the terms and why they are important. Pay special attention to the introductions professor Harlow has written as that will give you a clue to what the essay questions will be about. If you have time after doing that than look over your notes from discussion section. Then, look at the reading guides and make sure you can answer those questions. If you really have lots of time, you might want to reread the assigned readings.

For our discussion sections next week you can ask specific questions if you have them. If there aren't questions than I will quickly review the material that we have not yet had time to go over. If there are things that I wanted us to go over but we weren't able to go over in discussion I will post them on the blog, hopefully by Tuesday, but by Wednesday early evening at the latest.

Good luck on the test!

Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately it is pretty much impossible to schedule a review session at a time convenient for everyone. In my experience having it at 7pm allows for the maximum number of people to come. If you can't stay until the end make sure to bring any important questions you have so you can ask them at the beginning.
