BTEC Digital Information Technology Learning Grids
A brilliant way to support weaker learners!
Students read their textbooks/notes to complete a grid of questions in exact specification order. Cross-referenced to the major textbooks and ZigZag Workbooks to ensure structured study.
A solid foundation for students to revisit key concepts
The structured and active learning method helps students understand the key points and build confidence.
Brilliant for students who learn best by doing. Dramatically improves learning for weaker students; highly motivating.
- Requires minimal teacher planning and input – ideal for cover lessons
- An easy-to-set, valuable homework option
I like the layout. I can see myself printing each learning aim as a booklet for students and filling it in as an ongoing revision aid... it will be great to be filled in as homework or starter/plenary activities
