Scootle - Your one stop shop for digital curriculum content

Last week all teachers at Gippsland Grammar were given the opportunity to register with Scootle.Scootle has been developed by Education Services Australia and basically replaces what we called in the past,The Learning Federation.This online learning repository contains all the digital curriculum content from Learning Federation with the addition of some great new features. After having a play around with it I can see that it will become a starting point when planning learning activities.The new features that were not available on the former TLF are:
  • Access to teaching units
  • Access to assessment resources
  • Ability to create learning paths and share them with students and teachers
  • Access to collections based on themes/topics.
At this point of time we have 31 teachers registered across the three campuses.I will be managing our school account which means I will be keeping the users list up todate and provide PD on its use when requested by individual learning areas
