Students that have used the software so far have been very impressed and can already see the results in their awareness of key vocabulary and recall of facts and ideas . In last year ’ s exams 94.5 % of students who completed 80 % of the course gained an A * -C grade . The figure for students who completed less than 2 % of the course was 62.5 % A * -C grade ( figures taken from www . tassomai . com ).
Every student has been given a log in and we will be reminding students of the benefits of using the resource , there may even be some prizes for participation . If you would like to know more about the software please visit www . tassomai . com or contact Mr Finan at finan . s @ welearn365 . com .
