John Hattie's meta-analyses put formative feedback and self-assessment among the highest-impact study habits, with effect sizes of around d = 0.7-1.3 — well above the d ≈ 0.4 average effect of typical teaching. Amy makes that quality of feedback sustainable for every response. Made by an experienced senior science teacher with deep curriculum and assessment expertise — so Year 12 students have study tools that actually match what examiners look for.
