WHAT'S INCLUDED
Our Leaving Cert Study Skills Guide is designed to empower students and parents/guardians with the latest evidence on, and the relevant application of, 'what works' in study, revision and exams. The scope of the Guide is curriculum-wide and the format adopts a holistic approach to the processes of learning, study and revision. In it, we communicate important scientific ideas and research in an accessible manner. The Guide is organised into four discrete sections, each of which can be read separately or cumulatively. Each section includes relevant exemplars and practical strategies. A video tutorial is also included.
The A3 pad is ideal for organising knowledge, whether into full maps of a curriculum subject or syllabus, by units within subjects or topics within units. In our Study Skills Guide, we outline two principles for creating study maps and we offer practical examples. Our Study Maps include instructions and illustrations on the inner cover. A short video tutorial is also available. 
This Wall Planner is 420mm x 594mm in size. It has space for 49 revision days, excluding rest days, with up to four slots daily to allocate towards a revision topic/subject and the individual task. Students can also monitor their progress in the completion of tasks. Each planner includes a maximum of 196 revision slots and we recommend a twin pack for Christmas and Summer exams, or for mocks as well as end of year exams. Instructions are provided on how to map subjects/topics, create notes and complete retrieval practice. A short video tutorial is also available.
Our Q&A Cards are lined on one side and blank on the other. 50 cards are included in a set. The organiser has 13 pockets, in expandable accordion-style, for the portable use of question-and-answer cards. It allows students to keep cards neat and organised and works well for spaced practice. This is the practice of increasing the intervals between review sessions which introduces desirable difficulty for the student.
These are a unique resource to create notes in structured bite-sized chunks, accompanied by relevant questions and answers for review. Each card has A6 dimensions, larger than the standard flash card. This allows students to maximise the content of their notes by planning out the structure of individual cards as well as the connections between them. Each sheet of cards is portable and can be folded, making notes more digestible. Instructions are provided on how to get started and create effective notes and review/revision questions which are used for later retrieval.
The Cornell note-taking system can be used during class, when reviewing information after class and as a revision aid. It is an internationally recognised model. This format requires each student to be mentally engaged in learning, uses a set of pre-assigned headings (Abbreviated Notes, Questions and Summary) and offers scope for dual coding. Using this system, each student will focus on and interact with the home text, make decisions about what is important and record only the information that is most relevant.
Both the Leaving Cert Study Skills Guide and the A2 planner are accompanied by complimentary explanatory videos that are 45 minutes and 15 minutes, respectively. Each video outlines the main benefits, features and content of the resource. These pre-recorded videos allow each student to engage at his/her own pace, and to pause, rewind and replay where necessary.

The guide is really good. It gave different advice so if one thing doesn’t work for you, there are more options you can try. The presentation was extremely helpful and motivating.
