Reflection on Participation Experience:

Mr. Gibney has devoted class time that is proportional with examination review. He has laid
the foundation with his previous lectures, and his review session recapitulated main points
without being overly transparent as to the assessment items the examination will contain.
Responses during the review made it clear that Mr. Gibneys instructional techniques have
instilled confidence in his students concerning their comprehension of the material.
