Awarding credits for revision exercises will motivate children to complete them. Not giving credits conveys the message that revision has no value. I agree with Paul.

At the moment Maths-Whizz puts a value on initial learning only with the credits system. I think it would help drive the message home and influence behaviour if credits were also given on revision exercises. i totally agree – and because frequent revision is so vital to understanding and long term recall – i find it strange that Maths Whizz doesnt give credits for revision.
