The Value of Guided Revision

Janet Carter

Technical report 9-02, University of Kent, Computing Laboratory, September 2002.

Abstract

In the summer of 2002 the CS department at the University of Kent at Canterbury (ukc) signed up to a guided revision and key skills programme intended to help students pass their first year exams and ease the transition to the second year.� The scheme, called VALUE, proved to be extremely popular with CS students and more students applied than could be accommodated.� The departmental response was to create a cut-down version of the scheme, called Value-LITE.� This paper describes the schemes and explores the impact of the revision phase upon examination results.
