Supporting our teachers to deliver English Literature with confidence
As part of our commitment to enhance our package of digital resources, we are pleased to announce a raft of new and FREE resources to aid teaching and learning.
To support the introduction of our new texts, Malorie Blackman’s Boys Don’t Cry, Winsome Pinnock’s Leave Taking and Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, (for teaching from September 2023) to our GCSE English Literature specification, we have new Blended Learning Resources and Knowledge Organisers.
Commenting on the new resources is Sara Charles, Subject Adviser at Eduqas: “These new resources provide additional learning aids to support teaching and revision. Each resource has been developed by our subject experts, with teaching and learning in mind, offering practical teaching aids and handy revision support.”
FREE resources
These new Blended Learning Resources are online learning packs that allows students to learn at their own pace and have been designed to complement face-to-face teaching. Alongside these are our Knowledge Organisers, which offer students a revision aid that can be tailored towards their own learning strategies.
These new resources, alongside a wealth of others, can be accessed via our Digital Resources Website.
Online Exam Review (OER) – updated
Our team have also updated our OER online tool. The platform now includes new marked and unmarked exemplar materials of candidates’ examination scripts from the recent summer examinations. The tool includes candidates’ responses and associated examiner comments, highlighting strengths and areas of improvement within their response, along with the corresponding question and mark scheme. It can help inform teaching practices by encouraging students to identify common pitfalls and areas where they should focus their responses. New this year is a catalogue of OER exemplar which enables teachers to see what texts / marks are covered on the OER scripts at a glance.
(Remember, if you are accessing the OER in a web browser and are only able to see a single page, please download the document and reopen it in Adobe Reader in order to gain full access to the exemplar material.)
