ASC Exam Essentials Week 1 – Planning Your Revision – Useful Links

Today we want to introduce you to some resources that will help you when it comes to organising your revision. And scroll down to the bottom of the post for the link to the recording of Monday’s online workshop.

Our Revision Bites resource has a section on Scheduling Effective Revision, including some advice on revision timetables and an introduction to two important concepts which can supercharge your revision – ‘spaced practice’ and ‘interleaving’  .

There’s some more detailed advice on timetabling your revision in our set of three Sway Resources – Organising your Revision, Avoiding Procrastination, and Focussing your Revision.

One of the keys to revising successfully is staying focused and motivated. If this is something you feel you struggle with, or you’d just like a few more ideas, you might want to check out our recorded Lightning Sessions on Focus and Motivation and Avoiding Procrastination.

If you want a break from online resources, two members of the Academic Skills Centre team have co-authored a book called Pass Your Exam which contains lots of tips and advice – you can find it in the library.

What resources or tools have you discovered to help you with scheduling your revision? Why not share your suggestions on this week’s Padlet? Your comments there are anonymous.

Be sure to check back here for Friday’s post, where we’ll pick up on some of the key themes from the week and respond to some of your questions and suggestions from the Padlet.

Last but not least, here’s the link to the recording of Monday’s online workshop on Planning Your Revision: https://eu-lti.bbcollab.com/recording/6bd776945cc4495d9c37d3f1b36712e9
