Announcing the schedule of tests and assignments at the start of the semester would allow students to plan ahead and manage their time better, reducing stress and anxiety. Basing grades mostly on class participation and calling on students in a random order may increase stress as students may feel pressure to participate and constantly prepare to be called on. Not saying anything about upcoming tests until the day before each test and making classes as spontaneous and unpredictable as possible would also increase stress and make it difficult for students to prepare in advance.
