    To allows learners to discuss learning materials in forum, blogs, wikis outside of lesson time.


  1. How would you best describe your student’s use of Learnzone? (to the best of your knowledge)
    Students make good use of the materials and consider it a useful aid to learning
    Students use LZ to access missed notes and thats it!
    Students useage varies with some using it frequently and others not accessing it at all
    Students do not access learnzone and question the worth of having 'Learnzone'


  1. Which of the following do you consider a barrier to you producing an outstanding Learnzone page for your students to access? (Tick all that apply).
    Time to spend updating Learnzone
    More training needed on how to produce an 'outstanding' page
    Need more examples of what an 'outstanding' page looks like
    Limited recognition by managers and other staff in lesson observations, day to day delivery on outstanding work.
    I do not see the benefits to students outside of lesson time and would rather spend more time planning lessons
    Students do not seem to bother so why should i?
