QuickStart Guide Overview and Walkthrough Videos
Introduction to Evidence for Learning
Have a look at some of the Case Studies by schools using Evidence for Learning
Look at some of our short videos where schools outline some of the impacts that Evidence for Learning has had on their Learners: Case Studies. They provide an overview of different ways in which Evidence for Learning (EfL) can be used in various educational settings. They offer great insight into school's experiences and journeys using EfL. Evidence for Learning is in over 400 educational settings and they have all set up and use EfL in their own specific way. You can set up Evidence for Learning in your own way that is right for your Learners in your Education setting.
Steps to setup Evidence for Learning
Setting up Evidence for Learning is easy.
There are 3 main steps for getting set up:
- STEP 1: Create EfL Users
- STEP 2: Setup Data: Add Learners; Tags; Date Ranges and Comment Templates
- (OPTIONAL) Setup Data: Create a set of individualised outcomes for use with a single learner (e.g. EHCPs, IEPs, etc.)
- (OPTIONAL) Setup Data: Create a Framework for use with multiple Learners (e.g. Subject specific, Accreditation etc.)
- (OPTIONAL) Setup Data: Import a Framework from the EfL Framework Library
- STEP 3: Setup EfL on your iOS Device and or your Android Device
Below are short but comprehensive walkthrough videos taking you through each step. Under each video is a link to comprehensive written step-by-step instructions.
