Help develop your own and your students' memory as memory expert Ed Cooke reveals the techniques that have seen at least one school substantially improve its GCSE results. Ed Cooke works with teachers all around the country to help them and their students to develop a better memory. At Bishop David Brown School in Woking, Ed has worked with the staff and students to help produce some amazing GCSE English results and in this programme he returns to the school where we see how the English department are using memory enhancing techniques. Ed accepts a challenge from the science department which helps illustrate how his approach compares to standard teaching. He teaches one group of Year 10s a lesson on the electro-magnetic spectrum using his memory techniques, whilst the head of science teaches another group the same topic in a more conventional way. Which group will do better in a test?
