At the heart of guroo are realistic, relevant and appropriate on-line learning materials that support 14-19 year old students in the three Functional Skills subjects.   Our materials include:

• 46+ Learning Challenges covering Mathematics, English and ICT at level 2, level 1, and entry level
• 50+ Videos and Podcasts
• 500+ Interactive questions based on Functional Skills tests
• 600+ Interactive questions based on Key Skills/ALAN tests
• 150+ Contextualised downloadable learning tasks supporting underlying learning for Functional Skills and KS/ALAN
• 150+ Learning feedback and solutions to learning tasks

• 90+ Lesson plans

Plus, additional resources being developed and added continually:

• Additional Challenges practicing the functional skills in different scenarios
• Additional Challenges based on the same scenario, but at a different level - especially entry levels 1,2 and 3
• Task-specific support materials comprising spreadsheet, word processing and other application templates

But that’s not all!

Guroo subscribers also receive:

• The guroo “beyond-training” Active Engagement Plan for all tutors – our education consultants working on-site with your teachers
• Printed packs for each functional skills department including all materials, lesson plans, curriculum mappings and more
• Regular management usage reports
• Unique logins for all students and tutors
  

We use real-life learning challenges, each with video support, podcast, interactive on-line tasks, downloadable solutions and on-line tests that engage and enthuse students, particularly those students typically regarded as "hard to reach".

We map everything to Functional Skills, the Core Curriculum, and to Key Skills and we're constantly adding new learning materials and challenges - ask us for our latest curriculum coverage.  And remember that guroo is VLE friendly too.
