Not specifically, though focussing student listening to the podcasts relevant to lesson plans amplifies the impact and benefit of each taught lesson. Each podcast series is created to exam board specification to give students exactly what they need to understand their subject. Individual podcasts are around 15 minutes long, are highly accessible, and designed to maximise engagement & focus, and are complete tutorials on key themes. Teachers licensing specific subjects/topics, can directly guide podcast tutorial usage to support their lesson plans & progress through a subject/topic. Our podcasts improve subject engagement, knowledge foundations, deepen understanding, and encourage critical thinking. It's good practice to use our podcasts to prep for, and then reinforce, lessons. We can also guide homework, fast-track periodic recall, and revision very easily - with selection of the appropriate podcast from each topic.
We recommend Britannica School replaces general internet searches within your school. Through daily use and interaction, students will be better equipped to research independently and become more knowledgable about the subjects they are studying.
An internet connected device with audio output (headphones or speakers) is all that is required to access our podcasts once the relevant School, or Individual Subscription license has been purchased. Our platform works on Web & Mobile Web browsers, and we have iOS and Android apps for a mobile experience. Schools Subscribers will be guided through the simple and basic set-up - which includes sharing and cascading a school username & login, and basic how-to guidance. A school's library will be pre-populated with licensed content - and can be added to simply, at any time. Individual Subscribers will create a username & password as part of the sign-up process, before being able to access what they need. We advise that individual subscribers (usually parents) check the exam boards that their children's schools use to navigate to the correct podcasts.
Log in details will be provided by Britannica upon start date and internet access required.
We provide a simple user-guide PDF for schools, and best practice guides. No specific training is required - the beauty is in the elegance of the podcast content. Select > Click > Listen
