Dialogue: 0,0:00:17.58,0:00:20.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I've had a very busy day, I've done a lot of presenting, talking Dialogue: 0,0:00:20.93,0:00:26.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but it's fantastic and often not so much the technology but actually the conversations with people Dialogue: 0,0:00:26.22,0:00:30.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and picking up tips from people is, and the network, and it is what is all about. Dialogue: 0,0:00:30.59,0:00:33.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Technology is important in pretty much everything. Dialogue: 0,0:00:33.46,0:00:36.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Education is a part that's been left behind for quite some time.

Dialogue: 0,0:00:46.21,0:00:50.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Using that technology in the best way so the students can actually get out there Dialogue: 0,0:00:50.54,0:00:57.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and get the best out for themselves rather than the traditional method where the teacher actually just provides the information. Dialogue: 0,0:00:57.37,0:01:02.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's more about teachers enabling students through technology to get the information. Dialogue: 0,0:01:03.10,0:01:08.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So for us the iPad and technology is a tool. And like any tool it does nothing but let you use it, Dialogue: 0,0:01:08.14,0:01:11.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but if you use it properly we see it as a catalyst to deeper learning Dialogue: 0,0:01:11.75,0:01:17.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's not a magic wand it won't solve the world's problems. It won't make students bully to everything, Dialogue: 0,0:01:17.21,0:01:22.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but we do think it's a catalyst used to speed up their acquisition of key ideas.

Dialogue: 0,0:01:34.61,0:01:38.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They've got an awful lot of work to actually do \Nso Explain Everything allows them to kind of Dialogue: 0,0:01:38.65,0:01:43.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,minimize the amount of time they spend on \Npreparing for lessons. With it's organic nature Dialogue: 0,0:01:43.29,0:01:47.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the ability of taking photos in the lesson\Nthe ability to really quickly record Dialogue: 0,0:01:47.48,0:01:52.100,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and create wonderful presentations. Putting all of that inside a lesson saves them time Dialogue: 0,0:01:53.02,0:01:58.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and reduces their workload, and it means that they can focus on the cool stuff, like preparing and making Dialogue: 0,0:01:58.33,0:01:59.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,interesting lessons. Dialogue: 0,0:01:59.47,0:02:02.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It allows you to do things that you weren't able to do before Dialogue: 0,0:02:02.75,0:02:06.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I think that's powerful. It's the tool of the future, you know? Dialogue: 0,0:02:06.94,0:02:10.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It amplifies your ability to do things. Dialogue: 0,0:02:10.56,0:02:13.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We're a very large academy in the UK and Explain Everything is one of the Dialogue: 0,0:02:13.53,0:02:17.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,very first apps that we bought. We don't buy many paid apps for the students. Dialogue: 0,0:02:17.55,0:02:21.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Only two or three, but that is the main one that we do buy. We also love Dialogue: 0,0:02:21.55,0:02:26.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,technology, particularly things like Explain Everything as a way to develop student's independence. Dialogue: 0,0:02:26.86,0:02:33.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We use Explain Everything in my school and I believe it's a fantastic tool for learning. Both from a Dialogue: 0,0:02:33.38,0:02:36.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,teacher perspective and from a student perspective as well. Dialogue: 0,0:02:36.24,0:02:47.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Of course I was familiar with Explain Everything. I love it. We use it a lot and we use it to create and to visualize knowledge. Dialogue: 0,0:02:47.89,0:02:54.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The fact that students can speak, and they can write, and draw and be able to kind of tell their story. Dialogue: 0,0:02:54.37,0:03:00.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I think that's a really powerful thing. I think it allows us to measure the cognitive development of children. Dialogue: 0,0:03:00.64,0:03:06.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Because you can't just cut and paste something from somewhere. You've really got to be able to explain. Dialogue: 0,0:03:06.05,0:03:14.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I think it's one of the few tools that allows students to focus on their academic abilities, Dialogue: 0,0:03:14.39,0:03:23.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but at the same time is developing their creativity.

Dialogue: 0,0:03:27.40,0:03:33.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Being able to get to the core of it and be able to explain others. The cool thing about teaching, me being a teacher, Dialogue: 0,0:03:33.60,0:03:40.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the one thing that drives me is passing on that knowledge. And if students can do that, that's absolutely awesome to me. Dialogue: 0,0:03:40.04,0:03:44.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And especially through an app like this that's so simple to pick up and easy to embed within schools.
