Press Release Body: Harbinger Knowledge Products has announced that it is helping schools produce and share content by making its products available to Becta funded projects in England. The products include Raptivity, the award-winning rapid interactivity builder and Elicitus, the leading authoring tool.
Becta, the UK government agency for technology in learning, has funded over 40 projects led by secondary schools in England to exploit online digital resources to create more engaging, innovative and interactive materials for teaching and learning. These materials will then be made available nationally for sharing with other teachers across the country.
The aim of the programme 'Repurpose, Create and Share' is to build capacity, knowledge and skills around the embedding of digital resources into learning and teaching materials in order to improve learner achievement.
The teachers who are part of this initiative and experimenting with tools are finding Raptivity and Elicitus useful for developing more engaging materials. One teacher has said 'We are impressed with the Raptivity Package and find it relatively easy to use'
