As a partnership we are continually trying to expand the range of resources available and are committed to improving your online experience, so from today, educators will be able to produce their own user profile.
Just register your requirements when prompted and the platform will begin to respond much more intuitively to better highlight the right materials for you. Overtime the site will tailor your experience better and make hunting for the right materials a much quicker and easier task.
We will also be conducting a comprehensive review of all our existing resources and are keen to know what other resources you would really like to see added in the coming months. If you have any comments or feedback then please email [email protected].
