CD/DVD-ROMs<br />

Schools without internet access can still enjoy the interactive aspects of our top digital<br />

programmes. The content delivered on CD or DVD also offers an engaging environment for<br />

students. With videos, audio and animations offered, they provide the same rich experiences as<br />

online resources but without the need for internet. They are a great first step for teachers looking<br />

to add some digital learning to the classroom.<br />

Apps<br />

An app (application) is a piece of software that can be run on a computer or mobile device with<br />

an internet connection. Many apps once downloaded can be run offline without an internet<br />

connection. We offer apps for both teachers and students. Our teacher apps enhance instruction<br />

and enable teachers to be more responsive to individual student needs while teaching. Our<br />

student apps are perfect for today’s digital natives. They offer a range of fun preparation and<br />

practice support through videos, games and assessment to enhance independent learning and for<br />

extra practice at home.<br />

experience outside of the classroom with the support of parent participation. For teachers, it<br />

extends learning into the home as well as improving parent– school involvement and relationships,<br />

including reporting and tracking pupil progress.<br />
