BBC Bitesize By Bekii


Name of App: BBC Bitesize
Cost: Free
Device/s used: iPhone
Available on: Apple, Android & Online


What was good about this tool?
It is aimed at GCSE level and is split into separate years, subjects and topics with a miniature test at the end of each sub-topic to test your knowledge. You can also choose which exam board your school is using for each subject and all your selections are recorded to your profile. There is also pre-made flashcards which you can use for quick revision and videos to go into depth on topics you are unsure on.
What was bad about this tool?
There was some activities that required you to use paper instead of the app which i feel didn't suit the purpose of the app. There was also missing subjects that are not deemed as 'core' such as spanish and geography. the app also doesn't work without internet so cannot be used on the go without 3g.
How did you use this tool?
I think this app is useful if you know which topics you are weakest on in order to refresh your memory and is best suited to those sitting their GCSEs.
