Great topical ideas for a busy teacher

I have used a couple of videos when covering classes

How well does it engage and motivate pupils?

Brilliantly: Pupils love using and are excited when they know they are going to do so

something new, like video format

How well supported is it by any included formative assessments?

Reasonably: There is some formative assessment included, but its usefulness is a bit limited

I'm afraid I don't really know

How well does it support planning?

Reasonably: Mostly we can use it without an unreasonable amount of effort or additional resource requirement

Seems to complement other teaching well

How well does it support home use / independent learning?

Well: Pupils could be expected to use this at home or independently, with a minimum amount of support or additional resources

How would you rate it for value for money compared to similar resources?

Reasonably: It represents about the same value for money as similar resources I’ve seen

I don't know

Would you recommend it to a colleague in a similar school to yours? 11/11
