Free GCSE revision podcasts

by on May 31, 2007 at 12:10 am

That’s right, free revision podcasts for English, Geography, History and the ‘old’ science course from the beeb.

Well, not exactly – Bitesize referrs to them as ‘audio-topics’… soundbites, if you will.  And you don’t need iTunes to listen.  Or even the ability to hear, thanks to the free scripts.

With the terminal exams all but upon us it’s time for some serious cramming.  I know for one that unless I’m in a sterile room with nothing but revision materials to distract me then I’m not realistically going to slog through a boring old revision booklet – and let’s be honest, who has a sterile room?

These ‘soundbites’ could be the ideal solution.  You can download single MP3s for specific topics – say, writing to persuade; subtopics such as writing to persuade, argue, advise; or entire subjects.  They’re useful to make notes from by themselves, or as convenient portable revision from your MP3 player.  Useful for bus and car journeys in these critical last few days before the exams, no?

Download free audio revision bites from BBC GCSE Bitesize.

    i’m now in A-levels, and i’ve been always someone whoi needs to listen to study ok.
    it worked 4 me, and i was reallly scared cause i’m not english, im Italian and I was studying in an English school..
    all my grades were C (in art) and above…

    Found this great Christmas site and want to share it with you… has recipes, videos of christmas houses and lights, cooking how to videos for the holidays and a great selection of Christmas decorations and gifts for everyone.

    The website is “http://www.christmas2you.com”

    Again that address is http://www.christmas2you.com

    I hope you enjoy it as much as I did… got most of my shopping knocked out in one night this year.

  14. Comment by LARA on February 14, 2010 at 2:03 am

    for those asking how to download them to ur ipod simply downlad to ur computa then clck the expot zip file at the left hand side icons
    it changes it to MP3 format so u can open it to listen the after changing the downloads
    move it into ur itunes and simply download..
    if u have a phone or normal MP3 do the same then connect the device open it to were ur songs are and move it or copy it to the device
    hope itz clear enough
