This afternoon, one of our Digital Pedagogy Officers held a training session with the staff at Seafield Primary, specifically focusing on the Microsoft Learning Accelerators, Microsoft Accessibility Tools, and Adobe Express, to build engagement and support all learners.
Adobe Express offers great opportunities for collaboration, feedback, engagement and creativity. Today, staff explored a number of features, but particularly enjoyed the ‘Animate Your Voice’ function, producing some cute results.
Staff explored how to use or further embed the use of the Microsoft Learning Accelerators and Accessibility tools, to support ALL learners.
The tools we looked at today included:
- Reflect
- Reading Progress & Reading Coach
- Search Progress
- Immersive Reader
- Dictate
- Accessibility within Microsoft Edge
It was great having an in person session. I really liked that it was informative but also informal so we could ask questions specifically relating to our own class or our own level of knowledge. Thanks! 😊Class Teacher
It was great to learn more about Adobe Express and I have now added all pupils in the class with lots of thoughts on how we can use this in the near future.

We are looking forward to seeing how these tools are used across the school in the near future. Good luck Seafield, and thanks for a great session today.
