This Producer's Pick is all about EducationCity's fantastic Learn Screens and the many benefits they bring to the classroom.
What are Learn Screens?
Learn Screens are mini-tutorials which are perfect for both independent learning and to consolidate the understanding of a topic.
Students can use Learn Screens to explore educational material, without a right/wrong format and without being timed.
What's more, Learn Screens can be used to support teacher-led learning. There are different styles of Learn Screens, including exploratory, slideshow and vocabulary, making them a flexible learning option.

Here's why Learn Screens are a huge benefit to teaching and learning in the classroom:
- Give learning flexibility: Learn Screens can be used on a whiteboard as a class, or individualy by students, adding options to your teaching.
- Provide a support to Activities: designed to help explore or introduce a new objective or concept, prior to playing any associated Activities.
- Curriculum-ready content: not only are they produced by our in-house Education Team, all our Learn Screens are curriculum-ready, so teachers can meet important objectives.
