Boss It! - A guide to planning and writing outstanding exam essays

Our English department at school are great, and they really do create some great study aids, as well as fantastic acronyms and scary posters. Frankly, they don't get the credit they deserve!



So I've decided it's my mission today to get their fantastic-ness out there to all of you who are either revising for exams, or trying desperately to get your students  to do so! This video follows on directly from my video playlist on effective revision strategies which I shared last week, and which is based on the latest research into cognitive techniques. hopefully it will help.



But once you've learnt your stuff, you can easily score an extra 10% in exams (in my humble opinion) by having a system for planning and writing essays as comprehensively as this.



Please share far and wide, and let me know what you think...
