Selecting testing content

Hi Robert - Welcome to Ed 103! Thank you for mentioning the importance of identifying learning objectives. The learning objectives of every class should ideally be on the board at the start of the class and re-visted at the end of that class. Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career!
