Finals week: notes from a librarian

Typically, in the last week of every module, there are certain things students need to do:
  • Take the end-of-mod survey. This can be found at Access.compasspro.com.
  • Review your material to prepare for finals; read this great list of test-taking tips.
  • Turn your books in to the book room.
  • Return any borrowed books to the library.
  • Look ahead to the next module: find out where the class will be held and what special supplies you might need. Talk to your teacher!
