Without doubt my most effective resource for helping students tackle exam questions effectively! Full Marks! focuses on making students consider really carefully the number of marks available for each question and thinking hard in order to find the corresponding number of DIFFERENT points. See how this resource works: Copy and paste this url address into your browser to see these interactive flashcards in action. https://youtu.be/Mbn3hedhN7g A fully interactive set of PowerPoint slides with 30 questions associated with diet and nutrition, this resource enables you to show the key concept and number of DIFFERENT points that have to be successfully found by the students. It's so effective because it makes students realise there is no scope for waffle and it encourages them to think about what a mark scheme would look like for each question. Alternatively, simple interactivity allows you to show the DIFFERENT points on the slide and your pupils have to determine which key concept is in the question. Perfect for whole class activities such as starters and plenaries, but also excellent for personalised learning by distributing this resource to individuals on their tablets through Showbie or your school VLE. Students will need to download the PowerPoint app (for free) from the App store or Google Play to benefit from the interactivity of this resource. A must have for all PE teachers!

Application of knowledge is the key to success! Receiving information and recalling content at a superficial level may help students to an extent. But what about their ability to apply the knowledge they have learnt? In this fun, interactive and versatile resource, 'Apply Your Knowledge', students choose key terms on the muscular system by selecting a number and are challenged to make connections and links between the concepts and then apply their knowledge in a practical sporting example. For example, a student clicking three numbers at random might reveal these three key words: biceps, concentric contraction and flexion. The student might offer the connection that flexion takes place at the elbow when the bicep muscle contracts, using a concentric contraction. An example of this is a bicep curl in weight training or when a rugby player makes a tackle. This resource can be used as a whole class activity or for personalised learning when distributed to students' mobile devices (use the PowerPoint app to get full interactivity). The resource can also be printed and students can choose which key terms they want to connect and apply their knowledge to. A great activity to challenge all abilities, it can be used at the start of this unit to gauge students' prior knowledge as well as during and at the end of the unit to assess learning, knowledge, understanding and application.

Check student understanding with these ever popular true or false statements on diet and nutrition. These 40 interactive true or false statements built on PowerPoint are designed to challenge all ability levels with repetition of concepts to reinforce learning. It's a great resource to use as an introduction to diet & nutrition to assess students' prior knowledge, as well as assessing learning during the unit or upon completion. How to navigate these slides: 1. At first the main white body of the slide will appear empty (no text). This encourages students to think about what the concept is before the statement is revealed. 2. By clicking on the concept (in the red box) students can reveal the statement. 3. They then decide whether the statement is true or false and click the appropriate word (true or false) to reveal the answer. 4. Either a red cross or a green tick will appear against the word chosen to indicate whether the student has answered correctly or not. 5. If an incorrect response has been given, most slides provide feedback. Students click on the blue 'i' button that appears to reveal information about the statement. How to distribute these slides: I use Showbie and the PowerPoint app from the App store or on Google Play. Simply load the powerpoint slide on Showbie in your designated class file. Students can access it from there and must have the PowerPoint app loaded on their mobile device in order to access this resource. All they need to do is open the resource in the PowerPoint app, press play and away they go! This resource can of course be used on PCs and as a whole class activity by projecting it onto your whiteboard.

“A desirable difficulty (first coined by Robert A. Bjork in 1994) is a learning task that requires a considerable but desirable amount of effort, thereby improving long-term performance. As the name suggests, desirable difficulties should be both desirable and difficult.” “When planning lessons, we should not worry about students getting stuck, we should worry about them not getting stuck.” Sherwood (2018) “Making learning too easy leads to thinking that learning has occurred when participants quickly forget and cannot actually apply. Deeper processing is critical”. Shank (2017) These desirable difficulties have been thoughtfully designed in order to challenge your students to go beyond a superficial understanding of the concepts involved in skill classification. Challenge your students and ask them to explain why certain statements are true and to elaborate on other statements. This will be difficult and will require them to think hard and construct deeper understanding of the concepts. This is good, because “when learning is easy it is often superficial and soon forgotten. However when the learning is difficult it makes the learning stronger and better remembered.” Brown (2014) What’s in this resource? 20 desirable difficulties concerning skill classification on MS PowerPoint Random generator on MS PowerPoint, enabling you and your students to select any of the desirable difficulties at random - perfect for starter and review activities and for spaced and retrieval practice Printable PDF of the 20 desirable difficulties to display in class and use as extension tasks Printable worksheet of the 20 desirable difficulties for students to work on individually

They need to be viewed on Microsoft's PowerPoint app which is free from both the App Store and Google Play. Enjoy!

With the ever increasing growth of digital learning in schools, colleges and universities this e-book has been created to assist you, the teacher and educator to get the very best out of Microsoft Forms. "Effective Use of Microsoft Forms For Education" The aim is to enable you to become so familiar with what MS Forms has to offer that it transforms your teaching, develops your students’ learning, and assists with student assessment. All with the overall aim of supporting your students to achieve their absolute best. Here’s what you’ll learn: How to create, edit, copy & distribute quizzes to students & colleagues How to create many different kinds of questions, including Maths, Ranking & Likert Scale questions How to copy, delete, shuffle & move questions How to give an extra dimension to your questions by adding images & videos How to use the amazing Immersive Reader How to use branching to support student learning How to create & view File Upload questions How to manage settings, give feedback & print quizzes How to manually mark quizzes & access summaries of students’ responses How to promote meta-cognition, retrieval practice & spaced learning Written to accompany the online course Mastering Microsoft Forms for Teaching, Learning and Assessment you can still make excellent use of this e-book without accessing the online course, although you may decide that you would like to see and hear the explanations of how using MS Forms can transform your teaching as well. This e-book is very succinct and focuses specifically on how to carry out activities in an easy to follow bullet point format. I elaborate in the online video and audio tutorials about educational context and pedagogy and how certain functions of MS Forms lend themselves very well to supporting teaching, learning and assessment, while the content in this e-book gets straight to the point of how to do things. "There is plenty of extremely useful information beyond the basics in this e-book." Unlike other books or guides which look mainly at the functionality of MS Forms this e-book takes a deep dive, approaching the use of MS Forms through the eyes of the educator which allows you to understand the students’ perspective, as well as what quizzes look like ‘behind the scenes’, how to mark and grade quizzes and how to provide feedback to your students before posting them their results. I hope you find this e-book helpful in assisting you on your journey towards Mastering Microsoft Forms for Teaching, Learning and Assessment.

Something completely new! A fully interactive drag and drop activity for your students to show their knowledge and understanding of the frustration-aggression hypothesis. How to use this resource: Heard of ‘desirable difficulties’? This is a great concept I came across in Peter Brown’s excellent book ‘Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learning’, where, as teachers, we need to create difficult scenarios in which students have to wrestle with content to grasp its meaning, rather than simply be told it. In essence, we need to get them to ‘work it out’ for themselves. By working hard to make meaning of new material students are much more inclined to remember and understand the concepts involved. And can then apply them correctly. In this case, the desirable difficulty is the challenge for students to successfully drag and drop each component of the hypothesis into the correct container. They have unlimited attempts and on pressing submit they will receive feedback as to whether they have been successful or not. It’s a great way to introduce this hypothesis and as well as can being used on individual devices, it can be projected on your board and used as a whole class activity. It can also be used to review learning and as a revision tool.
