Revision Materials

As you will appreciate, I have spent the last three months gradually updating the website to the current AQA specification, revamping the design, and adding new material.

As regards this Revision Hub, you will have seen that I am incluing the revision materials on the first page of each sub-unit, and it to those that I would advise you to go to revise the Wider World Depth Studies available on this website.

HOWEVER, I have not yet updated any of the four Period Studies, and this Hub also contained useful general advice, so here is the latest overview of the revision materials available to you.

Advice for Pupils

Here is some general advice on commonly-asked issues.  Please note, if at any point my advice differs from what your teacher is telling you, ignore ME:

Doing Sourcework - Interpreting a cartoon - Writing an essay -
Learning dates  Timing an exam - Analyses of exam questions

(apologies: these are not yet redesigned - asap!!)

Basics sheets

If you have struggled to understand the topics and feel 'at sea', here is a great, simple starting point.  These are the sheets I used to give to my 'skiver' pupils when they turned up to the exam, sometimes having not attended school for the past year.  I used to make them read the sheets immediately before they went into the exam - they ALL passed.

Origins of WWI - Treaty of Versailles - League of Nations - Origins of WWII - Cold War
USA 1919-41 - Russia 1917-41 - Germany 1919-39

Smartass!

If you feel confident with your undestanding, here are some checklists of specialist terms which will help you REALLY wow the examiner!

Causes WWI - WWI - Treaty of Versailles - League of Nations - Origins of WWII -
