๐ฅ Video of the Week HPE: 60 second VCE revision ideas โ๏ธ.
When senior students are revising, we want them actively thinking about the content, not just re-reading their notes.
Here are three, 60 second strategies to try in your classrooms.

Give students a key concept and 60 seconds to explain it to a partner without looking at their notes. If they can teach it clearly, chances are they understand it.

Before answering an exam question, give students 60 seconds to identify the command term, key content and evidence theyโll need. A quick plan can make a big difference to the final response.

Have students answer a question, give them one piece of targeted feedback, then ask them to immediately rewrite it and improve their response.
Three simple ways to make revision more active, purposeful and focused on improvement.
Take 60 seconds and give them a try!
