Exam literacy: a guide to doing what works (and not what doesn't) to better prepare students for exams

Unlike most other study guides, this work focuses on the latest cognitive research into revision techniques - proven procedures which actually work.

In the light of the recent decision to make all subjects at GCSE linear, so that students will be tested in one-off exams, it will be even more important to prepare students effectively for exams.

Accordingly, this book concentrates on what works in terms of revision strategies.

It is an exceptional and essential research-based guide for all teachers looking to improve results in schools and colleges.
