recapitulations
Condensed review presentations
Recapitulations are summaries or restatements of main points, typically at the end of an argument, speech, or piece of writing: The final chapter offers recapitulations of each theorem.
In music, a recapitulation is the section where earlier themes return after development.
The word often implies going back over familiar ground, sometimes tediously.
