Abstract
Student-taught review sessions reinforce basic concepts while providing an ideal forum for students to practice giving an oral presentation to an attentive audience. This program was successful for many reasons, including (i) the students want to have a review session before the exam and are happy to participate, (ii) the timing of the review prevents the presentation of new material until after the exam, and (iii) the instructor has the benefit of observing how students present concepts to each other.
