How it works
Revel is available online, iPad or via mobile and gives students bitesize pieces of content. Each chapter or module has an introduction, content segments, and a summary to support students.
Revel lets students check their understanding and get immediate feedback - one of the most effective means for building long-term retention and increasing student confidence.
It also allows instructors to gauge student comprehension by giving them access to student performance data.
What lecturers and students say:
"Using Revel to prepare for the seminar helped to create time to discuss the question in depth. I was pleasantly surprised by the extent I could sit back and let the group discuss the question among themselves. Normally they wouldn't have reached the stage of reading academic work before a seminar."

"I found that the interactive nature of Revel was very useful in letting me put theory into practice."
