A teal and dark green poster titled “University of Exeter Library” promotes LibGuides. Large turquoise text reads: “Find Your Way with LibGuides.” Below the heading is a wooden-style signpost with four pastel purple directional arrows. The arrows are labelled, from top to bottom: “PGR Library Support,” “Distance learners,” “Online students,” and “Book a 1 to 1.”
We have over 400 LibGuides on all things #Library and #StudySkills, but did you know we have specific ones for PGRs and Distance/Online Students?
Check them out here 👇
PGRs: libguides.exeter.ac.uk/PGRhome

It is effective.

Creating images can be one of the best ways to learn. A labelled diagram, flow chart or mind map often works far better than a page of dense notes.

Many students lose marks on long A-Level Biology questions because their answers lack structure.
A simple strategy:
PEEL

Your brain loves patterns.
That’s why mnemonics are so powerful for learning.
Strange sentences → stronger memory.

Traffic Light Your Knowledge
Before revising, colour-code the syllabus:
🟢 Green – confident
🟠 Amber – partly understood
🔴 Red – need to learn

One of the best revision techniques is actually teaching someone else.
If you can explain it clearly, you probably understand it.
If you can’t… you’ve just discovered what to revise next.

Learning and juggling sounds ridiculous… but it works.
Try this study cycle:
20 mins learning 5 mins juggling
It resets the brain

Students often revise by rewriting notes. Unfortunately, that’s mostly passive learning. A better approach? Mind maps.

In reality it comes from studying smarter.
Good time management can transform exam results.

Most students revise content.
Far fewer practise exam technique.
Yet exam technique can easily move a grade from B → A.

Students often say:"I'm revising for my exams." But here’s the problem. Revision assumes the knowledge is already there. Most students actually need to learn, not revise.
