  We consider the dynamics of spin facilitated models of glasses in the
non-equilibrium aging regime following a sudden quench from high to low
temperatures. We briefly review known results obtained for the broad class of
kinetically constrained models, and then present new results for the behaviour
of the one-spin facilitated Fredrickson-Andersen and East models in various
spatial dimensions. The time evolution of one-time quantities, such as the
energy density, and the detailed properties of two-time correlation and
response functions are studied using a combination of theoretical approaches,
including exact mappings of master operators and reductions to integrable
quantum spin chains, field theory and renormalization group, and independent
interval and timescale separation methods. The resulting analytical predictions
are confirmed by means of detailed numerical simulations. The models we
consider are characterized by trivial static properties, with no finite
temperature singularities, but they nevertheless display a surprising variety
of dynamic behaviour during aging, which can be directly related to the
existence and growth in time of dynamic lengthscales. Well-behaved
fluctuation-dissipation ratios can be defined for these models, and we study
their properties in detail. We confirm in particular the existence of negative
fluctuation-dissipation ratios for a large number of observables. Our results
suggest that well-defined violations of fluctuation-dissipation relations, of a
purely dynamic origin and unrelated to the thermodynamic concept of effective
temperatures, could in general be present in non-equilibrium glassy materials.
