The study guide is supplied as an interactive HTML file that students can open on a computer or compatible device. It contains clickable flashcards, self-testing activities, matching games, interactive timeline features, progress tracking and worked exam practice.

There is nothing to wait for in the post.

A revision guide that makes students actively recall what they have learned

Knowing something when you are looking at the page is not the same as being able to remember it when the exam paper is in front of you.

That is why this guide includes interactive recall and self-testing throughout.

Students can:

  • Flip through 32 interactive flashcards covering key terminology
  • Reveal answers to recall questions only after attempting them
  • Play quick matching games covering key figures and the Crusader States
  • Filter the master timeline by different historical themes
  • Mark sections as complete
  • Track progress through all seven sections
  • Jump back to unfinished sections
  • Practise exam-style questions throughout the guide
  • Compare their own answers with five worked exam answers
  • Read examiner-style commentary explaining what makes an answer stronger

The aim is simple:

Don't just recognise the answer. Make yourself retrieve it.

The guide's 32-term flashcard deck can be studied in sequence, filtered by section or shuffled into a random order, turning key terminology into an active recall exercise rather than another list to read.

What do you actually receive?

This is a digital product.

You will not receive a printed revision guide, physical book or posters through the post.

The HTML guide is designed to be used interactively rather than printed. The PDF posters are separate downloadable files and can be printed if you want physical copies for a bedroom, study space or classroom.
