GCSE Computer Science 9-1 – Revision carousel
For the AQA GCSE 9-1 Specification, and also suitable for OCR J276.
Designed as a revision carousel. Print out the worksheets before the session starts. The students can then move around the sections in groups. I run these as open book sessions and allow the students to revise / look up material on their phones / talk to try to solve the work as necessary.
Moving around the stops
You can tell the students that they have 10 minutes for each stop. If you pursue this strategy you can be flexible with the amount of time that the students have at each stop
Work and then present
Each section has quite an amount of sheets, and you could choose to put them all out and the students present what they have learnt after a 15-20 minute session.
Alternatively, the students move around the stops, and at each one write on post-it notes any queries that they have. You could then address these at the end of the session.
