Hi,
I am new here and I have a question. I am on challenge six of the south Wales version but I still have to use the pause button to think before I say the answer. Is that ok?
I’m sure it’s ok.
Personally I don’t use it, but as a result I don’t come out with a perfect score card, so often have to do some repeat learning. I think it’s just personal choice. I would say that the fact that it exists all the way through the system implies that it is permissible to use it.
It’s fine to use the pause button and there is a guideline to say that if you are not using it about 80% of the time, you should be fine to move on to the next challenge. I’m sure you will have noticed that there is an emphasis on developing/revising material from previous challenges and this is quite deliberate. There’s nothing wrong with going back over/repeating a few times a previous challenge if you feel you need to - it’s something you can judge for yourself depending on how confident you feel.
Good luck!
ok, thanks
