Last semester's geology class worked together to create a review sheet for the final exam. The review sheet contains information that covers 13 chapters worth of content along with tables, graphs, and illustrations. The students in this semester's geology class don't find the review sheet useful because they can't seem to make sense of it. There are no headers or section titles. Plus, there is too much information on it for the students to concentrate on one thing at a time.
