Ending NoteO As you have seen in the previous slides,
one of the student did really bad in the test and his review was sort of pertinent to his test result.
O Two of them did well, they enjoyed working with the website, and the rest was sort of ok with that.
O Perhaps if I as the teacher had the chance to slightly modify the test or questions, it might have had a better effect on my students.
