You know you need more support when...

Everyone can do with some more teaching and learning support

Students need more study support when they are ...

  • spending hours highlighting texts so they can "come back to the hot points"

  • highlighting more than they should and losing track of their real points

  • transposing notes from one place to another and missing the key points

  • reading all the time, trying to pick out the important pieces

  • reading so much they cannot remember anything

  • stressing about how much they have to remember

  • not able to share their notes easily with friends

  • spending too much time finding revision questions

  • not revising the right level of questions for each subject

  • revising what they already know, all the time

  • finding out what they don't know when you see a question on topic

  • unable to organise revision around important learning gaps they don't know they have

Teachers need more formative support when they are spending hours...

  • trying to make formative assessments quicker and more insightful

  • trying to match assessment quizzes with your learning plan

  • trying to use big formative assessment products when all you want to know is do they get it

  • looking for quick formative activities for students to prompt revision

  • trying to have some fun with formative assessment – gamify a classroom in seconds

  • photocopying quiz sheets from somewhere else

  • transposing questions into Google Classroom or Google Forms

  • publishing and transposing materials in Teams

  • typing your quizzes into Canvas and Moodle so you can then mark them manually and drive yourself nuts in the process

  • sharing and finding revision resources

  • searching through assessment platforms looking for decent revision questions

  • figuring out what needs more revision
