Regarding the question below, I generally subscribe to the claim that
the more time a student spends in contact with the course material, the
more the student will learn (and retain) from the experience. So using
the end-of-semester time to review the whole course should result in
greater retention of course content (as a whole) than your
alternative--studying only the last 3 or 4 chapters.

Any comments about this technique? ...
