It is designed to aid students in both schoolwork and, for older students, exams.\u003Cbr>Ideas for use:\u003Cbr>- Mind maps; read a section of information on a particular topic area, add branches and information to a mind map on this.\u003Cbr>- Look-Cover-Write-Check; read a section → cover it/scroll down → write out what you just read → check by scrolling back to the section\u003Cbr>→ repeat until get it all correct, then move on to a different section\u003Cbr>- Flashcards; use the information to make up your own Qs and perfect answers. Write the Q and answer on the same side of a flashcard. Get someone to test you.\u003Cbr>- Video clips; there are some short video clips within some of the content. Watch these and make notes on the information\u003Cbr>- Self-quizzing; complete the multiple-choice quizzes at the end of each topic → make flashcards on weak areas → practice with them and then repeat the quiz. | |\n| Seneca Learning | Seneca helps 2,500,000+ students to learn faster and memorise better. It is a homework & revision platform that applies cognitive neuroscience to make learning more efficient and enjoyable.\u003Cbr>Seneca’s algorithms are adaptive and personalise students’ education to their abilities, prior knowledge and performance. Their algorithms are based on students’ knowledge and performance, as well as principles such as the‘Forgetting Curve’ to deliver an optimal learning experience.
