What is DoodleLearning?

DoodleLearning offer four digital learning programmes for ages 4-14: DoodleMaths, DoodleEnglish, DoodleTables and DoodleSpell.

Created by teachers, for teachers, they’re designed to boost confidence and ability in maths and English — and reduce staff workloads!

Benefits for teachers:

  • Doodle creates every child a unique learning experience that automatically fills their gaps and tops up knowledge, helping them stay on track in school
  • Staff can instantly set work in any area of the curriculum for use as a pre-teaching, consolidation, intervention or homework tool, reducing their workload (and saving queues for the printer!)
  • Doodle automatically marks work and highlights each pupil’s learning gaps in an online hub, making it easy to offer additional support where needed
  • It provides instantly exportable data including the % of EoY objectives covered, helping with teacher handovers, PPMs, report writing and lesson planning

Benefits for pupils:

  • Doodle is filled with thousands of fun, interactive exercises, bringing the curriculum to life and reducing any anxieties they may have about maths and English
  • It sets work at just the right level for each child, letting them work independently at a pace that’s right for them
  • It rewards effort over ability, letting all pupils experience ongoing success and work alongside their peers on equal footing
  • In-app accessibility options, including audio dictation, hints and coloured overlays, empower children to learn anytime, anywhere

Recommended Usage

Doodle is designed to be used for 10 minutes a day, or ‘little and often’, using Doodle in this way has been proven by the University of Bath to raise attainment and reduce learning loss.

Doodle has significant impact on children's learning by providing tasks pitched at children's currently level of understanding. Staff are supported with workload as well as being able to set targeted work for children. In built rewards alongside seasonal challenges keep children motivated to continue Doodling.

Luke Paramor found DoodleLearning:
  • Significantly reduces teacher workload
    Reduced time in organising tasks linked to pupils level of understanding. Less expectations of staff for marking homework.
  • Significantly improves teaching efficiency
    Focus is on monitoring engagement rather than setting work. DoodleMaths allows pupils to review and recap prior learning supporting retention of knowledge and skills.
  • Moderately improves parent engagement
    Parents often report pupils have high levels of engagement and they find DoodleMaths and DooldeSpell supportive allowing pupils to access the learning independently.
  • Moderately improves attainment
    I have worked with children several times when they have commented that they know how to do something already because they did that recently on Doodle.
  • Moderately builds student knowledge

I love DoodleLearning as it evokes independency in an interactive and personalised way.

Reply from DoodleLearning:Thank you so much for your feedback, we appreciate it and are always looking at ways to improve. It’s amazing to hear that Doodle is saving you time as a teacher by reducing your workload and making it easier to identify the gap in your students' learning. We look forward to working with you and your school further this year and into the future! – Sinead, your School Success Advisor
Elisa Pearlman found DoodleLearning:
  • Significantly reduces teacher workload
    We give Doodle for homework which reduces the amount of homework we need to prepare.
  • Moderately improves teaching efficiency
    I can easily set assignments on the current topic of learning as revision.
  • Does not significantly improve parent engagement
    Parents shouldn't help the children with their Doodle Learning, but it is easy for them to check on their child's progress and effort.
  • Significantly improves attainment
    Doodle fills in holes in the children's learning which is especially relevant in an international school where the majority of the children come from learning a variety of different curriculums. It can also be used to consolidate topics that are being learnt by setting relevant assignments. It also gives the children an increased confidence in working independently and navigating their way around using a computer.
  • Moderately builds student knowledge
    As the questions are individualised, it can ask an array of questions in an array of topics with an array of different ways presentation and methods.

Reply from DoodleLearning:What an amazing review, thank you so much Emily! I'm so pleased that Doodle is having such a positive impact at your school - Katherine, your School Success Advisor
Emily Brewerton found DoodleLearning:
  • Moderately reduces teacher workload
    Teachers are able to set assignments to develop Pre/Post-teaching, fill gaps in learning, assess understanding, fulfil interventions, engage parents in pupil learning, increase participation in Home learning, engage pupils during school closures and Doodle gives pupils ownership of their own learning journey.
  • Significantly improves teaching efficiency
    Doodle analyses tasks for you, if you've set an assignment (preview the questions to meet your needs) to retrieve/assess knowledge and all children are accessing the task, you may be able to recap or create a starter activity from that and progress knowledge further/review steps within the learning journey and adapt the level of challenge.
  • Significantly improves parent engagement
    Parents are encouraged to link to their child/childrens accounts - enabling them to see the progress, levels of activity, assignments, competitions and rewards. Parents are keen to discuss home learning and how effective Doodles have been in supporting their own subject knowledge as well as enabling them to support pupil progress.
  • Moderately improves attainment
    We are able to track progress and can link Doodle participation to attainment in school. We have Greater Depth children on 1334 day streaks as they commit to their education. We reward Daily Doodlers and Doodlers of the Week, promoting its benefits.
  • Significantly builds student knowledge
    Children are able to use their prior knowledge and state "I know this, I've done it on Doodle." Children are remembering more, able to retrieve prior DoodleLearning and apply it in lessons.

It is good on occasion. I love how it has progress my children however I wish the games were not on the doodle app. I have to stand over my children to ensure they are actually doing the work and not the games. This has also happened in school. The tables can't be reset which is a pain as having done an in class bench mark it is clear the Lerners do not know their tables. It should allow the educator/parent to reset annual so they are tested again on tables.

Reply from DoodleLearning:Hi Richie, thanks for taking the time to complete a review for us. It's lovely to hear how well your boys are getting on with Doodle and I'm going to reach out to you directly with some support with regard to games and instructions on how you can reset tables for your students - Katherine, your School Success Advisor

  • Does not reduce teacher workload

  • Does not improve teaching efficiency

  • Does not improve parent engagement
    Across the school we do not have a high usage which of course for younger years is the parents not assisting in encouraging the learners to complete it.
  • Slightly improves attainment
    Those that use it, it does. I started using this before my school did and it has worked wonders my my adopted boys.
  • Slightly builds student knowledge

The children enjoy Doodle - they love the advent calendar and the real Doodle badges that they receive for completing challenges. Parents like that they can see progress their child is making and it is a manageable resource for them to use at home.

Reply from DoodleLearning:Hi Leanne and thank you so much for leaving us such a wonderful review! I loved the Winter Calendar too! It's fantastic to see how well you are using Doodle across your school and the positive impact it is having on teaching and learning. Amazing! – Ian, your School Success Advisor
Leanne found DoodleLearning:
  • Moderately reduces teacher workload
    Teachers use Doodle to set homework - Doodle marks and provides feedback to the children so that the teachers don't have to. The teachers can then review how their class is doing when they log in. Doodle also provides personalised learning to all of the children in the class and can be used to provide support or extension work during lesson time - less prep for the teachers.
  • Moderately improves teaching efficiency
    Setting up homework is fast and easy - without the need for printing, copying and sticking in multiple sheets per child for every class. Using Doodle as morning starter work or extension work is again much more time efficient than copying work. The work is always at the correct level for the child moving them on when needed - making this easy for the teachers to review.
  • Significantly improves parent engagement
    We have held in person Doodle meetings for our Reception parents and have found higher parental involvement. We have done this for the last couple of years and many of the parents that attended still ensure their child Doodles at home frequently. Parents contact me with any issues and they are sorted quickly by myself or Doodle giving us and the parent confidence with the online platform.
  • Moderately improves attainment
    It is usually clear to class teachers which children are Doodling regularly (particularly in Maths) as they are able to recall subject knowledge quickly in class. They are used to practicing their maths skills and don't need as many reminders of strategies in the classroom. Those that Doodle regularly also appear more confident when discussing their skills.
  • Moderately builds student knowledge
    Doodle helps with retention of knowledge so that the children's brains store the information in long term memory so that it can be recalled with ease. Doodle New bubbles explain new topics clearly and the help tools provide support for the children at all times - making them more confident using the platform.

  • Significantly reduces teacher workload
    It gives children an independent, useful task to be doing whilst you can individually support other children. It's good to set for homework.
  • Significantly improves teaching efficiency
    It gives a good assessment guide for individual children, they are individual programmes so there's no need to set new work/move children on.
  • Slightly improves parent engagement
    Parents are involved in Doodle and can link their account so they can talk about Doodle and what the children are doing. They can see the expectations of the year's curriculum.
  • Significantly improves attainment
    Children have the chance to complete some prior learning on topics they haven't yet covered, they get to practise skills they need more time on as the programme responds to their individual learning needs.
  • Significantly builds student knowledge
    Pupils get the chance to work on topics before they are taught in class which can improve their knowledge as they already have a starting point so can deepen their knowledge/understanding. Lots of practise of the maths skills helps improve student knowledge.

It is good but I am also looking for a clear report that indicates a child's specific targets (those that are measurable within a specific period of time) and the child's progress in narrative form - an easy read report but with clear targets and progress. Thanks

Reply from DoodleLearning:Thanks so much for your review, Viv! It's great to hear that Doodle is helping your students achieve mastery of the topic and your feedback about reports is really useful as we have some future updated planned in this area! - Katherine, your School Success Advisor

  • Slightly reduces teacher workload
    For me, I'd say it helps lessen the load of assigning home learning tasks.
  • Moderately improves teaching efficiency
    It helps children attain mastery of the topic as questions appear several times whenever they miss it.
  • Slightly improves parent engagement
    I can't tell whether parents are engaged yet.
  • Slightly improves attainment
    We have only just started using it this term so too early to gauge.
  • Significantly builds student knowledge
    mastery of unit conversion

I think Doodle is a powerful tool that is simple and easy to use. It creates a program that is different for every child depending on their own level and knowledge. It also has hints, explanations to give before a child puts it as a tricky question.

Reply from DoodleLearning:Hi Elisa and thank you for your review. I'm delighted that Doodle is so easy to use and helps to personalise learning for the children. Ian, your Doodle School Success Advisor
Elisa Pearlman found DoodleLearning:
  • Moderately reduces teacher workload
    We give less homework on paper and require them to doodle at least 5 times a week.
  • Moderately improves teaching efficiency
    I can set assignments to test the knowledge of what we have learnt in class that week.
  • Does not significantly improve parent engagement
    As I understand it, parents should not help the children with their doodle learning so that it is a true test on what the child knows. I encourage some of my students who struggle with keeping up with Doodle to show their parents when they are in the green zone!
  • Significantly improves attainment
    The program is designed for each individual and asks questions to the ability they are currently working on. It decreases and increases the level according to the child's answers.
  • Significantly builds student knowledge
    Doodle can ask a wide of questions that are either holes in a child's learning or on material that isn't being learnt currently in class. It also asks questions in a different way to test transference of knowledge.
