Active revision tools
Revise
Reading is not revising. These three tools make you do something with the material — recall it, see how it connects, and watch the models move. Use them in short, regular bursts alongside the Study Plan.
Flashcards
Flip-card recall for the 15 theories and 24 key glossary terms. Mark what you know; your progress saves in this browser.
Start recalling →Concept Map
See how the ten big concepts connect to the theories that illuminate them. Click to trace the synthesis links examiners reward.
Explore connections →Visual Explainers
Step through animated diagrams of the trickier models — encoding/decoding, the propaganda model, the moral-panic spiral, uses & gratifications.
Watch the models →Watch
Curated video explainers grouped by concept and theory. They load privately, only when you click — and each is a starting point, not evidence.
Browse videos →Exam Simulator
Sit a timed, three-question practice paper under exam conditions, then self-review against the marking criteria. Autosaves as you write.
Start a sitting →A good 20-minute revision loop: five minutes of flashcards (theory names → uses), five minutes on one explainer applied to a text you know, then five minutes on the concept map tracing one concept to its theories — and finish by planning one practice question that uses what you just revised.
