The test will cover the first three eras in teh book: Medieval/Middle Ages, Renaissance, and Baroque.
Outlining the chapter is a good idea. Pay special attention to the musical characteristics of the music of the era, what types of music there were (i.e. Ren. = mass, motet, madrigal) and their definitions, and how musicians made a living.
Another good study aid is the powerpoint presentations stashed on WebCT. Log in, and click the "folder" for the period. You'll see a link to the presentation. Sadly, it works best in Internet Explorer on Windows, but IS functional on the other browsers & platforms.
Yet another resource is the textbook website. There's a link on the syllabus.
If you have questions, shoot me an email, or ask in class. Check webct for my email addresses.
