SmartScreen

Sue Postlethwaite, Deputy Centre Manager of Hair, Beauty, Hospitality and Essential Studies at Blackburn College.

'SmartScreen is a user-friendly, easy to use site that provides staff and students with the best possible support.  We continually look to improve the students learning experience and SmartScreen is just one of those very useful tools made available to them that enriches and extends their knowledge.   The site is easy to navigate around, interesting and the materials are of good quality, helps them to prepare better for lessons and motivates students to take more of an active interest in the qualification and to undertake work outside of lessons.

SmartScreen is definitely a useful tool to reinforce learning within the college.  Tutors have found the activity sheets, handouts and lesson plans very useful, plus the recommended books and websites are good resources that students can access easily rather than spending precious time looking for books and information.  SmartScreen has definitely been advantageous in helping tutors with time and teaching methods, adding to the learning experience of our students.

We use SmartScreen to support a number of our qualifications already and look forward to adding more in the future'.
