Using these classroom resources

Recommended use for Teachers and Advisors

We recommend that these resources are used in a classroom or group setting in order to engage learners and encourage conversation around the topic area.

However, they can also be used individually and independently.

Please use the teacher and advisor guidance notes for information on use in the classroom.

Outline:

Each topic areas includes the following:

  • A 2 -3 minute animation introducing the topic area and connecting that skill set to employability and progression
  • A PDF activity which can be used by learners to develop their understanding and confidence with the particular skill set.
  • Teacher/ Advisor guidance notes for how to use the animation and resource in the classroom.
