Why it is important to integrate Access GCSEPod into your homework policy
Integrating Access GCSEPod into your homework policy means students and teachers are using the platform regularly.
Any homework set using assignments is automatically saved in the School Library area of Assignments, meaning you and your department have a library of editable assessments that can be reused year on year.
Sharing and reusing assignments is a brilliant way to reduce workload across the department and you can also set homework ahead of time, meaning you can schedule homework for the whole term in one go.
What you can do to integrate Access GCSEPod into your homework policy
Download the Access GCSEPod content list PDF to enable you to see what content and assessments are available for your subject and exam board.
Cross reference with your Scheme of Work to look at what has already been mapped from the content list, this makes it easier for you to decide what type of homework is best. Choose from multiple-choice assignments, customised free-text assignments, Check & Challenge quizzes or active learning activities.
Meet with your department to discuss the most effective way to utilise the assessment tools and ensure there is no duplication of work. You can duplicate assignments from other teachers so this is a great opportunity to save time.
