Gone are the days when you would have to carry home 90 exercise books on a Friday. What students now do is create a beautiful piece of work handwritten in their exercise book, scan it and upload it to Showbie. Teachers can then mark that piece of work and provide feedback.

The main thing that I enjoy about Showbie is the different ways that work can be presented to the children and how work can be presented to me the teacher. For example, if our children are not feeling confident about their writing, they can use the voice note app instead. The app is also great for me as a teacher as I can leave feedback on their work via voice or via a video of myself praising them on their fantastic work.
