powering independent, personalised learning and thinking skills Richard Lindo – The Stourport High School and VIth Form Centre

Homepage One of the key benefits of ActiveLearn is how intuitive it is. The website is also visually engaging to create an immersive learning experience.

Acute and Focused The acute focus on each area of the curriculum ensures a skills-based approach to learning. This acute focus provides detailed assessment of students progress.

Sequential, Guided Learning The sequential structure of the activities ensures that the learning experience is guided and graded in difficulty to foster independence in students.

Thinking Skills Thinking Skills are embedded within the activities – an essential element of independent learning. In the example below, the thinking-skill of hierarchy is being tested to develop students ability to sequence questions from generic to specific.

Variety of Activities The variety of activities is also an important element of ActiveLearn. This variety also ensures different thinking skills are being developed – in this case the skill of patterns.

Exam Practice The automatically-assessed exam practice is a powerful element of ActiveLearn. This exam-practice ensures the application of learning and, in turn, provides teachers with a RAG-rated assessment of students progress in a specific area of the curriculum.

Learning Aids Learning Aids are another unique feature of ActiveLearn. These aids appear on each exercise and combine audio, visual and text to support independence and success.

Creating Groups Groups can be created with a few clicks, enabling the powerful assessment tools within ActiveLearn.

Assessment Tools Results are automatically RAG-rated by class and individual students. Below is an example of the RAG-rating for my 10 C/D borderline group.

Assessment Tools Here is an example of the RAG-rating for an individual student in my 10 C/D borderline group. Notice the pie-chart which details the students success in meeting deadlines (good to track homework).

Assessment Tools You can also see which students are achieving their target grade. The RAG-rated system alerts you to fragile students. You can then drill down to diagnose issues.

Assessment Tools The RAG-rating for my fragile student, Jay Dancock, alerts me to the fact that Jay is weak in the skills of comparison. This allows me to personalise Jays learning.
