Revising for exams is an important preparation to make sure you represent your potential. Using multisensory methods can help to consolidate information in your memory. Using apps and software can facilitate this kind of multisensory learning.

This workshop will:

·       Address some of the common barriers to exam revision

·       Introduce some strategies for approaching exam revision effectively

·       Give a tour of apps and software to facilitate multisensory learning

Breaking Barriers Kit workshops focus on some tools that are freely available on most computers and mobile devices, as well as facilities available on-site and Birkbeck, and some suggestions for low-cost apps. There are also options for students who would find it helpful to invest in more advanced software. To learn more, watch our two-minute Breaking Barriers Kit explainer video

This online workshop will take place on Microsoft Teams. This workshop is intended for enrolled Birkbeck students only, and you will require your student login details to access the workshop.
