Advantages for students:

• Regular, scheduled, convenient way to review/synthesize; helps material "sink in"

• Can ask questions, make suggestions

• 4-5 consecutive cover sheets: review for test

• Improves students' ability to express themselves mathematically in clear, precise, thoughtful ways (not easy!)

• The students focus on meaning not "getting the right answer"
• Students take responsibility for their learning/Qs

• Improves organization and study skills

• Help for confusions they don't yet know they have (mistakes in "what I've learned" section)

• Individualized support (and challenge)
