Making ICT Teaching Effective Quickly

Opus is increasingly used in schools offering DiDA and OCR Nationals in ICT because it's increasingly popular with teachers and students alike. For one simple reason - it gets students productive more quickly.

Teachers can concentrate on the requirements of the curriculum itself and not spend time teaching the features of a particular piece of software.

But students won't be left with skills in a non-commercial product: Opus is also widely-used by businesses and government agencies including Ofsted and was recently chosen to be part of Avanta's contribution to the new Back to Work initiative.

Key Advantages

• Easy to learn and use so students get productive more quickly and engage with the course more readily
• Much easier than Flash so you spend your time teaching the course not how to use a particularly piece of software.
• Covers more units in one piece of software with the capacity for presentation, flash, animation, games programming and digital showcase requirements.
• Includes built-in tools for drawing, house-style and master pages, text effects, animation effects, tween animation, stop-frame animation, simple programming and export to Flash.
• Can also be used to create eportfolios.
• Lower cost
• Android app player available free of charge.
• Free resources and samples can get you and your students productive even quicker.
