The EDClass platform alleviates the teachers time setting paper based lessons. Once the lessons have been set on-line, they can be selected for other students within that year group, ultimately saving time. Students are able to learn on a par with their peers. This helps improve attainment of learning, as the lessons are set appropriate to the year group for the student. The mark sheets can be viewed by the student to show the teachers comments and feedback, and highlights areas of learning that need to be focused on. The students have access to an on-line teacher at EDClass and they are supported within their lessons and safeguarded.
Scott Sweeney found EDClass:
- Significantly reduces teacher workload“The lessons are built through the EDClass learning platform, and once they are set up they are they are held within the schools platform to assign over and over again. This has a great impact on the teachers' workload and frees the teachers time building the appropriate paper based lessons. The EDClass lessons can easily assigned at a click of a button.”
- Significantly reduces attainment gap“The EDClass platform enables the students to complete work within the school curriculum. The work reflects work within the students' Key Stage year, and helps them attain the learning level so they can reintegrate back into the classroom and reduces any gaps in knowledge.”
- Significantly improves teaching efficiency“The EDClass platform makes the assigning of pathways of work quick and easy, and allows teachers more time to concentrate on teaching. Once the lessons are created they are held on the platform and can be reassigned over and over again, which saves time in recreating work to reflect the curriculum.”
- Significantly improves attainment“The EDClass platform is used to support students within the inclusion area and offers learning and support for students at varying levels of ability. The students also have access to an on-line teacher within EDClass, and the on-line teacher also provides support for the student. The work completed by the student is marked by the teacher at EDClass, and these comments can be viewed by the student. This highlights the areas that the student needs to focus on to ensure that they attain their level of learning that would be experienced within the classroom.”
- Significantly builds student knowledge“The lessons that are held on the EDClass platform mirror the curriculum, and allows students to attain their level of learning. As the learning pathways can be personalised, this encourages students to remain focused and engage with their learning. The whole school use aspect of the platform also means that students can access additional learning to develop their knowledge within areas of interest.”
