Revising with a Topic Hub

What does this do?

A Topic Hub is a revision page your teacher has pinned to your class space. It can have videos, audio, flashcards, a mind map, a retrieval grid, games, exam questions that are marked straight away, and a checklist where you say how confident you feel.

When should I use it?

Use it to revise for a test, to catch up on a lesson you missed, or whenever you want to check what you know about a topic.

Revising with a Topic Hub — 1:00

How do I use it?

1. 1Open your class space and look under Pinned by your teacher
2. 2Choose a Topic Hub to open it — if it is part of a unit, use the contents list or the next and previous buttons
3. 3Flip the flashcards and try the retrieval grid to test yourself
4. 4Write an answer to an exam question and choose Mark my answer to get a mark and a tip
5. 5Rate each "Can you now…?" statement: Not yet, Nearly or Got it — your teacher sees this and it is saved for next time

Common mistakes

• Asking for an exam answer to be marked many times — each question can be marked 5 times a day
• Looking for a Topic Hub that has gone — your teacher may have taken it down
