3. Analysis
• At the top there are tab headings for different
levels and functions of the website: GCSE, A
levels, download zone, careers advice,
Games/comps as well as discussion groups.
• The layout for the homepage is very similar to
that of S-cool revision website, in the way that
there are the three distinct columns in the centre
of the page.
• The colours and layout is not as aesthetically
pleasing as S-cool, but there are less
advertisements (which can be annoying)
7. Analysis
• Links to further pages are presented in the same
orange box as subjects were listed in the previous
page.
• Only three topics are mentioned to choose from:
changing materials, classifying materials and
patterns of behaviour.
• The rest of the links include a revision world map;
chemistry words and definitions; examination
boards and past papers; short, sharp, shock
revision items; questions; a link to the download
zone; sudokem; useful links; and study help.
9. Analysis
• Once again, there is the orange box with each
lesson of the topic listed within, except with a
pretty picture of solutions in flasks
(necessary?)
• It is annoying how there are so many pages
going deeper and deeper into the site.
11. Analysis
• Content is once again in the orange box.
• The orange sort of makes the writing difficult to read although it
does fade out into white as the page goes down.
• The whole of the writing is just boring wordy text with no colour
and bold or italics.
• The language is , however, quite colloquial which is very accessible
for students at GCSE level to learn with. Funny and practical
examples are used instead of other examples which could lead to
confusion. E.g.: “Imagine the element ‘Blobbium’”, using a real
element such as potassium could lead users away from the point
Revision World is trying to make.
• There is also an embedded video at the bottom (though it cannot
be accessed by my laptop)
• Links to the next page are there too.
13. Analysis
• In the RevisionWorld Map of chemistry, there is a
summary of all the topics and concepts that are
covered in the chemistry section. This is a very
useful revision tool to give an overview of what
the site offers.
• There is also a list of the individual concepts users
can look at with the topic (P is patterns of
behaviour, CH is changing materials and CL is
classifying materials) and section of the topic
stated.
14. Additional
• There is also a log-in feature for Revision
World, although it does not say what benefits
having an account will have. Presumably it
would be the same as S-cool: access to more
revision material and features.
• Near the bottom of the homepage, there are
videos for users to look at if they want a break
from their revision.
