Crick Software blog
If you follow our social channels, you’ll know that we love sharing schools’ Clicker successes. What’s so fantastic about our most recent examples is how varied they are.
We’ve thoroughly enjoyed fundraising for KidsAid over the last two years and seeing the amazing difference the money has made. Our donations have mainly been used to refurnish and supply resources for their therapy rooms, which are a crucial part of the support they offer children and their families near our UK office in Northampton.
We love that our Clicker success stories highlight how the software can transform learning for entire cohorts of students. Often educators are trying to find a solution for a particular group of students who are struggling with writing, but when Clicker is introduced, they realize the benefits it offers to all learners.
Recently, we spoke with a school who have successfully used Clicker to transform a student’s negative relationship with writing and improved their outlook and pride in their written work.
We usually think of “time” as a mathematical concept, but it is interesting to get your students to consider the important role it plays in many scientific topics as well
At the start of every year, we take a company-wide vote to decide which of the many worthy organizations will be the Crick Software “charity of the year.”
Have you seen the new DocsPlus Myths and Legends section on LearningGrids? As well as being an important part of English and History lessons, myths and legends are valuable for developing students’ understanding of social norms and moral boundaries. The Echo and Narcissus DocsPlus resources can be used to support the analysis of the text and to explore the important life lessons within this Greek myth.
We’re often asked in Customer Care meetings for advice on the best ways to start using DocsPlus, so I recently led a webinar on this very topic!
