Jake and Jenny take the same subjects.
Jake took his exams in 2016: 18 exams in total, 24 ½ hours.
Jenny will take her exams in 2019: 23 exams in total, 33 ½ hours.
A 37% increase in time spent in exams.
Jake completed coursework for most of his subjects; Jenny has very little coursework to do.
Jake took some of his GCSE exam components at the end of his first year. Jenny will take all of her GCSE exams at the end of the two year course.
Jake re-sat his Btec examined component 3 times until he hit his target grade; Jenny is only allowed to re-sit it once.
STUDENTS NEED TO UNDERSTAND AND REMEMBER
A HUGE AMOUNT OF INFORMATION
IN A WIDE RANGE OF DIFFERENT SUBJECTS
AND BE ABLE TO RECALL IT OVER A SHORT INTENSIVE PERIOD OF TIME

UNDERSTANDING + REMEMBERING = KNOWLEDGE
![Page 7: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The human brain has enough memory to hold three million hours of television.
We have on average 70, 000 thoughts per day.
![Page 8: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

On average, the brain needs to be exposed to items 4 times before transfer to long-term memory happens.
![Page 10: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Every time we draw on a memory we increase its strength and extend the longevity.
Learning is a persistent change in long-term memory.
Forgetting and retrieving is an important part of the process of moving from working memory to long-term memory.

Cognitive overload

Everything in the environment is competing for students’ attention.
Cognitive overload
Interruptions slow learning and increase our chances of making mistakes.
![Page 13: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
It is very important to limit distractions
Reducing cognitive load
Be concise
![Page 14: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Stories and images seem to require less hard thinking to enter the long-term memory.
Reducing cognitive load
![Page 15: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Effective revision is NOT
These are just the first steps
![Page 16: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Effective revision …..
is an active process
requires recall of information from memory
takes effort
“We must start with the assumption that students will forget what they have learned unless they take deliberate steps to remember.”
![Page 17: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Students can feel discouraged when they feel they have ‘forgotten’, however once information has been learned it will be re-learned with less effort.
Because retrieving information requires mental effort, students may feel like progress is slow but this is when the best learning is taking place.
Time spent building deep long-term memory through spaced and mixed repetition will lead to deeper understanding , swifter recall and greater retention.

What did you learn today?
![Page 20: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Students are regularly being set tasks in class and to do at home using the techniques we are going to discuss which rely on recall.
![Page 21: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Posing questions about the content your child has studied is an important part of encouraging recall.
Use prompts/clues if needed to encourage your child to recall the answer themselves
Questioning
![Page 22: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The Black Death lasted from 1348-49 in England.Evidence suggests the plague began in China. The plague arrived at Melcombe Regis in Dorset in June 1348It resulted in an estimated 20 million deaths in Europe . With no knowledge of how infection of the Black Death spread, there were some unusual theories as to how it was caused such as wearing pointed shoes, a punishment from God or the movement of the planets. There were 3 types of plague. Pneumonic Bubonic Septicaemic. It is believed to have spread quickly as a result of poor living conditions. Modern historians, however, have discovered Medieval people washed and exercised. Many towns had bath houses.
What year did the plague arrive?
How many people died?
Can you name the 3
types of plague?
When your child has completed a piece of homework, question them about what they have learned to further encourage recall.

Mind maps
Transferring material into a different format strengthens connections in the brain.
These can be created from their class notes.

Text mapping
Most mountain ranges are millions of years old. They are made when two plates beneath the Earth’s crust collide, causing the land to buckle and rise. Any land mass that rises 1,000 feet above the surrounding area is considered a mountain.Some mountains are caused by volcanoes spewing lava over and over again. The lava cools and hardens and builds up to form a mountain.

Challenge grids
As a regular part of their revision, students can create themselves challenge grids from their notes.

Brain dump
Your child should choose a topic and write down everything they can remember about it.
It is important to check their notes afterwards to see what they have missed out.
Any gaps in the information they recalled, should be the focus of future revision.

A flashcard that is too cluttered can create an illusion of competence. Students will see the information and recognise it but they don’t necessarily know it. One item per card is a more effective way to check their ability to recall.

Hypercorrection
Encourage your child to focus on what they got wrong, and actively write down the correct answer in order to strengthen their power of recall.
Errors are a vital step in shaping their future revision

Spacing
Revisit key content swiftly after first exposure and then with increasingly long pauses.
Students need opportunities to process content multiple times.
![Page 39: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Interleaving
The most effective revision involves mixing up the content we are trying to recall.

Creating the right environment for working at home
Encourage your child to complete revision / homework early morning or straight after school
Late night work should be avoided
![Page 45: Supporting your child’s learning Exam preparation everything you …fluencycontent2-schoolwebsite.netdna-ssl.com/FileCluster/... · 2019-05-03 · Discourage your child from late](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043005/5f8d80a2b1c8ba27323e0394/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Creating the right environment for working at home“A rested brain is a productive brain”
Discourage your child from late night revision sessions and instead get your child to opt for an early night.
“Don’t skip sleep, study smart”
Research conducted at the University of California'Sacrificing sleep for extra study time is counterproductive. Academic success may depend on finding strategies to avoid having to give up sleep to study, such as maintaining a consistent study schedule”

Creating the right environment for working at home
Ensure that your child has somewhere quiet to work so that they are able to focus.
Quiet
Well lit
Warm
With a clock/watch near by
Places in school: library from 8:15, after school until 4:20
Lunchtime study rooms

Creating the right environment for working at home
Any distractions such as music and technology will cause a distraction and make thinking and remembering less effective.
Research suggests that having technology available during revision can…
Lower concentration
Negatively effect sleep patterns
Reduce memory
