STUDENT FEEDBACK

• You get to work with your fellow students and
  they can teach you as well. Sometimes when the
  students show you how the problem is done it
  helps you out. As far as who wants to be a
  millionaire and jeopardy goes, they are excellent
  because you either work your way to a harder
  question or you get to choose which topic you
  like.

7
STUDENT FEEDBACK

• I like the use of the review games because they
  not only give you extra practice, but they
  refresh you on previously taught material as
  well. The games show you your strengths and
  weaknesses which help you know what to study
  before the test.

STUDENT FEEDBACK

• I loved the games. It was fun and it taught me
  exponents really well. I wouldn't know exponents
  as well as I do if it weren't for the games.
