Crick Software blog
25 years ago, my classroom was filled with chalkboards, overhead projectors, and handouts. Technology was used sparingly, and classrooms had only a few computers for an entire room of children. Now, technology has transformed the classroom with interactive whiteboards, learning management systems and loads of educational programs for pupils.
This term we have a packed agenda of training webinars to support Clicker and DocsPlus subscribers. Our trainers will guide you through key product features and demonstrate a wide range of LearningGrids resources to support your learners.
Before joining Crick Software, I was a headteacher at a primary school and witnessed the fantastic impact anchor charts made when we introduced them to our teaching and learning practice. These graphic aids consistently proved themselves as valuable tools to staff as they modelled individual small steps within a lesson and empowered pupils to take ownership of their learning.
I recently ran a webinar on using Clicker as part of your whole class teaching. Clicker is an invaluable support tool, but we recognise that not all schools have the licenses or devices for every pupil to access Clicker in every lesson.
In a recent conversation with a secondary school, we discussed how DocsPlus could be used to support learners in PE. We focused on how to assist students when reading or writing PE-related content, both in lessons and in exams.
The challenges faced by students learning English as an additional language are multi-layered. They are not only learning English, but also learning curriculum subjects through English.
We’re thrilled to announce that Clicker has won the '2024 Primary Resource or Equipment – ICT' award at the Education Resources Awards!
