Revision Rooms

Resources:

Whatever you need for revision!

What to do:

Here on my toolkit, I have added an idea heard from Sir Tim Brighouse presented at #TMOxford about context dependent learning. Click here. (Includes a video clip!)

The idea is based around teachers holding revision sessions in areas/places students will sit their exams to help prompt their memories during their exams.

Revision Rooms: Get students to revise in different rooms of their house. Link the room to a particular subject. E.G- Kitchen for Science, link the common features of a kitchen e.g the sink to an important feature of the exam. Get them to move to another room when revising another subject.

May stop the boredom/time in one area that then stops students from revising?
May help students remember key points through the well ingrained features of particular rooms?
