Sherston Software: Online, on disc, on your VLE. It's your call.

Sherston Software have a long heritage in producing software, first producing educationally robust - and fun - resources for BBC micros and Acorns over twenty-seven years ago.

Much has changed over those years. Floppy discs gave way to not-so-floppy discs and Sherston in turn, bowed to CD-ROMs. Sherston today is pleased to continue to offer one of the most comprehensive ranges of CD-ROM based resources for children from 3 to 11 years, all mapped to the Scottish curriculum.

Sherston are mindful, though, that teachers today want resources that fit in with their teaching strategy. That's why Sherston also offer online resources and learning objects specially designed for virtual learning environments and learning platforms.

For those who recognise the benefits of online learning (the 24/7 access, home learning and more) Sherston already offer The Big Bus, available directly or through GLOW. Sherston also offer two learning channels Crystal ICT - the comprehensive ICT resource - and Gogglebox, for modular based learning across a wide range of historical and contemporary topics.

 

Both are being expanded this year and will feature curriculum correlations to Curriculum for Excellence.

 

Coming soon is Sherston's new Science channel: Elements - Offering the same comprehensive curriculum coverage you'll see it soon make a guest appearance in Gogglebox. You can trial Gogglebox and Crystal ICT for free by visiting www.sherston.com

For those with VLEs - such as Kaleidos, Studywiz or Fronter - Sherston have a pack of over 2600 learning objects to populate your learning environment. Perfect for keeping your pupils busy and gives you valuable feedback on their attainment.
