Final Exam Review Instructor’s Notes

Session Outline NOTE: This final exam review session is designed for instructors who are teaching this book as part of a credited course from the Educational Institute. If your students are not enrolled in this course with the Institute, much of what follows will not apply to your situation. However, you may still find sections I. C, D, and E useful. I.

Review for the Final Exam Inform the class that this review session will attempt to anticipate Final Exam questions. A. Sources for exam questions The exam questions will be taken only from the textbook. The exam will not include: 1.

Any separate but related information you may have introduced

2.

Any separate but related discussions

3.

Additional material introduced by guest speakers, videotapes, field trips, etc.

B. Exam format and policies The Final Exam will contain multiple-choice questions. Each question is worth one point. There is only one correct answer for each question. The correct answer is the single best answer. Generally, if students have studied their assignments carefully, they need not worry about successfully completing this exam. A score of 90 or higher will entitle the student to receive on his or her certificate the designation “With Honors.” To achieve a score of 90 or higher, the student must possess more than casual knowledge of the material. If a student fails this exam, he or she will be allowed to sit for a “retake” exam at no extra charge. (A third exam is possible, though at additional expense to the student.) The retake is similar in format to the original exam, though the questions are substantially different. C. Tips on course review Inform the students that it is not a good idea for them to go back and reread the whole book, since this will result in just as much time being spent on familiar material as on unfamiliar material. The students should be encouraged to spend more time on those topics that present some difficulty and to minimize their study of topics that they already understand. D. Useful information for exam review By now, you probably know many of the areas in which discussion and review are important. Again, do not attempt to cover everything in this course. To make it easier for students to ask questions, this session need not be conducted as formally as the previous sessions. You may wish to review any topics that were troublesome when initially presented. E. Anticipating Final Exam questions 1.

Divide the class into four groups as follows: Group one: Group two:

Text chapters 1–5 Text chapters 6–10


2

Review Session

Session Outline Group three: Text chapters 11–15 Group four: Text chapters 16–20 2.

Have each student create 10 questions that cover the chapters assigned to the group. All 10 questions should be multiple-choice. They should also be based on the competencies found at the beginning of each chapter. They should write an answer key on a separate sheet of paper.

3.

Once the students have created their questions, take two students out of each group to form new groups. All four of the original groups should be represented in each new group. For example, take two students from each of the old groups and put them in a new group. Continue forming new groups in this way until all students are in new groups. Each new group will have no more than eight students.

4.

Have the students exchange questions and take one another’s tests.

5.

Have the students score their tests and discuss the answers.

II. Close the session Announce the place and time of the Final Exam.

Instructional Aids Information Instructors can develop greater variety in their presentation by employing either an appropriate audiovisual aid or a different teaching-learning method. Brief information about some of the available audiovisual aids and various teaching-learning methods that can be used advantageously is presented here. It is suggested that instructors who are interested in using a particular device or method obtain further information at local libraries or from the manufacturers of particular equipment. Chalkboard: Chalkboards are useful for developing lists based on the current group discussion or lecture and for presenting data for problems, diagrams, etc. Flip Chart: Where no chalkboard is available, a blank flip chart of newsprint or other paper can serve the same purpose. Colored crayon or laundry marker-type pens can be used for writing. When preprinted, these charts can serve to focus group attention on a subject or question for discussion. Topical content can be developed for accompanying a lecture. Care should be taken to make lettering large enough to be seen easily and to avoid putting too much writing on any one page. The flip chart also provides for a ready review, since the recording is more or less permanent. Film, Filmstrip, and Slides (with or without sound accompaniment): Various factors should be considered when selecting a film, a filmstrip, or a series of slides. These include appropriateness of the subject matter, age, running time, size (in millimeters), whether color or black-and-white, and sound accompaniment. Appropriate projection equipment should be tested for operation and focus prior to the session. Be sure to have spare lamps, exciter bulbs, and an extension cord on hand. The room should be equipped with adequate electrical outlets and allow for maximum convenience in dimming the lights and projection. Overhead Projectors (opaque or transparency): Transparency projection does not require dimming of the room; opaque projection usually does. Special transparent slides must be secured or made in advance for transparency projectors. Methods for making low-cost transparencies from preprinted material or drawings are available. Opaque projections can be used to show large images from existing materials. Blank cellophane or clear plastic can be used with a transparency projector to project images of material being written by the instructor as a substitute for a chalkboard or flip chart. It should be convenient to dim room lights, electrical outlets should be available, and an extension cord and spare lamps should be on hand. If you have access to an LCD projector, you may wish to visit EI’s Internet site at http://www.ei-ahla.org to view additional resources. Videotape/DVD: Video can be a highly effective medium because it allows for the complete visual representation of activities that may be difficult to describe clearly in print alone or even with the aid of still photographs. Playback units should be tested prior to the session. Displays: Displays are effective when dynamic, well-lighted, and colorful. Lectures must be carefully prepared to support displays. Displays require much preparation and are costly. Panel Presentations: Groups of experts can present information or answer questions. These presentations are useful for supplementing the instructor’s knowledge. Additional: Student reports, projects, reading assignments, and handout materials can be used to reinforce printed material or to prepare for succeeding sessions.

Introduction

Introduction Outline D. Tests Announce any plans you have for administering tests, such as the Optional Tests included in this guide for each chapter session. E. Class preparation Stress the importance of preparatory reading and study for each session. Point out the need to do assignments faithfully, since subsequent assignments often build on material in prior lessons. F.

Class participation Encourage students to take an active role in most learning sessions. However, minimize discussion unrelated to the subject of the session. Cover all topics before allowing slight digressions. While it is not always easy to control the discussion, you must not neglect any major topics that may be included on the Final Exam.

G. Final Exam If you plan to use the Optional Tests, emphasize that students can begin to prepare for the Final Exam with their first test, since exam questions will be similar to Optional Test questions. Indicate that the Final Exam will cover material in the textbook and that not all of the questions on the Final Exam will necessarily be covered in class. Point out that any optional work you may assign will not necessarily be included on the Institute’s Final Exam. If you will be preparing your own exam, point out the areas it will cover. Tell students that AH&LA Certificates of Completion are awarded to students who successfully complete the Final Exam. Successful completion means scoring 70 percent or better. “With honors” is inscribed on the certificates of those students who score 90 percent or better. Explain that students who score less than 70 percent on the Final Exam have unsuccessfully completed the course. They may retake the exam once at no extra charge. Further retakes are available at an additional charge. Final exam results are sent to instructors on an academic grade report. Retake request forms are included if appropriate. The Final Exam is a proctored test and must be administered in a supervised setting. H. Final Exam answer sheet Explain that the Educational Institute courses are shrink-wrapped in plastic with an official certification application/exam answer sheet. Only those students who purchase new materials with the original Final Exam answer sheets will be eligible to receive certification. Answer sheets that are duplicated in any manner will not be graded or returned to the student. You should: 1.

Ask the students to print their names on the certification applications/exam answer sheets as they would like them to appear on their course certificates.

2.

Collect the exam answer sheets and put them in a safe place until you are ready to administer the Final Exam.
