Online interactive sessions for learners

This area of the National e-Learning offer provides access to e-Sgoil where a range of lessons across the broad general education and live, interactive study sessions in the senior phase can be accessed to complement school-based learning. E-Sgoil has been extended to include live online lessons and study support.

Recorded resources

A growing range of recorded lessons are available, designed to support learners to develop skills, knowledge and understanding related to a key learning concept. These are available via the West OS powered by ClickView tile which is accessible via Glow. 

Supported resources

An initial range of resources have been identified by the Scottish education community, allowing learners to use a variety of digital content identified by their teacher or sourced themselves. This will be expanded with the addition of further curricular areas.

Professional learning for working remotely with learners online

Remote learning will not replicate face to face in school teaching – in style, approach or hours of delivery. Education Scotland guidance is clear that learners should not engage in online learning for the entirety of the school day.

Various pedagogical approaches can be utilised, such as outdoor learning, to provide rich and varied learning experiences and time away from a screen.

Visit DigiLearn to access resources to support remote learning.

You will find suggested Professional Learning Activities (PLAs) related to Online and Offline remote learning. You can access these PLAs by registering on the Education Scotland Professional Learning and Leadership Resource.
