So much Edtech starts with tech and then searches for a use. Olex starts with something which is fundamental to so much of teaching - literacy, marking and feedback. The team at Olex want to improve the experience and outcomes of teachers and students and they work from that starting point. Why would you not give it 10?!

Reply from Olex.AI:Thanks for the 5 stars, Ben. We're glad you've had such a positive start to using Olex.AI.
Ben Walsh found Olex.AI:
  • Moderately reduces teacher workload
    Allowing teachers to set Y11 exam practice questions and Olex doing the marking and individual feedback while teachers do whole class feedback.
  • Moderately improves teaching efficiency
    By taking on the marking load, Olex frees teachers for other work. This might include planning and prep but the most impactful way is enabling teachers to meet and moderate Olex's marking and in the process they discuss, reflect on student performance and consider how this might affect future lessons and interventions.
  • Slightly improves teacher wellbeing
    It's too early to say but I certainly anticipate this being the case. Teachers always say their single biggest pressure is lack of time, and Olex saves time by taking on one of the most time consuming aspects of the job.
  • Moderately builds student knowledge
    It's a powerful driver of metacognition. Olex's feedback focuses on student performance in key objectives, such as clarity of argument. By highlighting triumphs and areas to improve, and even making suggestions as to how to improve an answer, Olex engages students more closely with the parameters within work they are working, in the same way that understanding the rules of a game makes it easier to understand and excel in.
