j2e - an invaluable tool for teaching and learning
What do you like best?
j2e is an online platform with a range of integrated tools and so it works on any internet connected device both in school and at home. This means it provides a central hub for teachers and students for so many aspects of their learning. This allows teachers to develop their familiarity and confidence with the platform rather than having to use a wide range of occasionally used websites and services. Also because it was created for education all the tools and features match directly with the needs of teachers and learners.
What do you dislike?
I can't think of anything currently. In the past when I found issues or niggles, j2e have been all too ready and willing to respond to feedback and seek to constantly improve what they offer to schools.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
As someone seeking to promote and develop the use of digital technology across the curriculum in our schools, j2e gives me a vital tool to encourage less tech savvy or eager teachers to use digital in their classrooms. It is simple, reliable and multi-purpose so they can see time spent using the tools in j2e will be a good investment for them and their class.
This brings the benefit of increased use of digital in the classroom while providing pupils with a safe and secure environment in which to work. The flexibility of j2e also enables innovation and curriculum development by staff leading the curriculum in various areas within their schools.
