Student Examination Advice

Parent AdviceSlide3

Encourage your child to ACTIVELY revise rather than PASSIVELY revise

Students often mistake reading through notes or websites as revision – it is not.

Active RevisionSlide4

Active revision

Where possible - help provide the right resources for your child to revise actively:

post-it notes, pen, ruler, paper, scissors & glue, internet access if you have it, dictionary, highlighter pens, coloured pens, revision guides, revision CDs and podcastsSlide5

Active Revision

We learn:

• 10% of what we read

• 20% of what we hear

• 30% of what we see

• 40% of what we see and hear

• 70% of what is discussed

• 95% of what we teach to someone else

 

 

This means that the best

method of learning is

having to explain or teach a

topic to someone else.Slide6

LEARNING STYLES AND METHODSSlide7

VISUAL LEARNERS

Recopy notes – then condense in particular colours

Visually organise or reorganise notes using columns, categories, outline forms, etc.

Remember where information was located in visual field

Create timelines, models, charts, grids, etc.

Write/rewrite facts, formulas, notes on wall-hanging,

bedsheet

, poster for visual review at any time

Facts, formulas, notes on index cards arranged/rearranged on wall, pin-board, floor, bedSlide8

VISUAL LEARNERS

Use colour-coded markers or cards for previous two above

Use visual mnemonics

Remember information by drawing out

mindmaps

TV/video supplements important for understanding or remembering

Use "background" visual activity helps you to concentrate

Use highlighters

Near memorisation of chapter/notesSlide9

AUDITORY LEARNERS

Discuss concepts/facts/aspects with friend immediately after new learning

Revise with friend(s) by trying to teach them the information

Tape records lesson or notes for re-listening later

Say facts/formulas/information over and over to retain

Simultaneous talk and walk whilst studying

Set information to rhyme, rhythm, music, football chants, to aid retentionSlide10

AUDITORY LEARNERS

Aural Mnemonics

Remember where information was located in auditory field (e.g. tagged to "who said that?")

Use of different voices to study (like creating a script, or acting out a play)

TV/video/radio supplements useful for obtaining information

Create your own podcast and listen without taking notes

Prefer group discussion and/or study groupsSlide11

KINAESTHETIC STYLE

Copy notes over and over to make them neat or organised

Prefers to take notes during lesson as an aid to concentration

Must take notes, even when detailed outline is distributed

Simultaneous talking-walking, talking-exercising study, or walking-reading study

Move hands or feet for rhythm emphasis while remembering informationSlide12

KINAESTHETIC LEARNING

Trace key words with finger, marker, hand

Re-enact situations while studying

Act out information in the form of play (using different characters for different topics)

Constructs (e.g. house of cards, blocks, etc.) to remember information

Plan a revision game on the computer/board gameSlide13

FOR ALL LEARNING STYLES

Ensure you practise on Past Papers

Get hold of the exam board mark schemes and examiners reports

Use grade boundaries to check your progress

Don’t just revise topics you are confident in

Use your teacher as much as possible Slide14
