Benefits of Online Revision
- AI created platforms develop weaker areas as your child completes set questions – highly effective revision
- Staff can track what work has been completed on some platforms e.g. Seneca, EduCake
- Engaging – young people tell us that they prefer this method of revising!
Issues with Online Revision
- Distraction – hard for your child to stay focused if they are using a mobile phone or the internet to revise
- Hard for you as a parent to track what is being completed – a level of trust is needed
- Unable to do this with another person – lots of research suggests that paired revision helps, but it isn’t always a bad thing to revise alone.
