Oops, this blog has been offline for a few weeks - I can’t even say how many as I only checked today!

I’ve been v. busy as am doing some extra stuff in school at the moment. The games design class is going swimmingly and I’ll write about that soon. This week’s concentration is on the S4 prelims - how to set up a Moodle that can really help the niggly last weeks of revision?

My plan is to make a one page prelim revision section on my moodle site, and start with a series of linked up study plans. So there’ll be links to glossaries for each unit followed by links to the quiz section for the unit, then a link to a printable set of exam-style questions for that unit. I’ve got the first two done, and will do some of the last one tonight.

I have also being using the games at revise computing  to help spur on some of my pupils - they really enjoy it, and I hope it’s helping. According to Inquizitor, such activities do help learning, especially in lower ability pupils. But the pressure is on the get good, written answers for prelims, so I am a bit worried about using this too much.

Anyway, best get going with the boring stuff, for now, as I’m sure that helps too!
