What We Offer
- Our newest addition just for teachers is our Online Lesson Planner designed to take away the paper trail of lesson plans and huge planners which clutter our space year after year. Why not join in and simply create your lesson plan with Starter, Main, Plenary and Homework all covered in one simply layout, attached to your class code and stored online against the date and period you are expected to teach that lesson. Join in, it's FREE!
- Members get to load their own learning objects and make them available across the web. This is great for teachers who prepare learning objects at home and need to access them while at school! You also get feedback from colleagues on just how good your worksheet is!
- Members of BertoTools.com also access a wide range of learning objects across a number of subjects provided by other members. In some instances learning object will have additional resources such as power point presentations to aid teaching.
- Similarly, members will be able to access solutions to worksheet where applicable. In many instances, solutions will not be applicable e.g. research type learning objects where information rapidly changes. However, for many learning objects, solutions will be available to BertoTools.com members in the form of a link similar to that described in (1) above.
- The layout of your BertoTools.com dashboard automatically improves with the addition of directory style listings of learning objects based on Qualifications, Subjects, Worksheet Types and Topics. This vastly increases efficiency in finding a worksheet to suit your needs, especially when time is against you with e.g. students lining up outside your door!
- More efficiency is gained by the use of "My Learning objects" which allows members to save short cuts to learning objects and sort them in different ways from the BertoTools.com Dashboard including by worksheet type or topic!
- BertoTools.com members each have the opportunity to rate individual learning objects and this in turn allows all members to benefit from the experience of others when choosing a worksheet to use in their lesson.
- If you teach ICT or involved in any way with your school's ICT curriculum, you may want to register to view the DiDA Assessment Manager database and express your interest in it! Definitely a winner for organising and managing your DiDA cohort in terms of assessments and submissions!
Our History
BertoTools Limited is a newly formed company to take over the various educational projects privately pursued by its founder Ian Berto Cooper.
Since 2003, his projects have been personally funded and have proven to be beneficial to a number of educational professionals using the resources of BertoTools.co.uk and most recently BertoTools.com.
In mid 2008, the decision was taken to formalize the operation since the variety of educational tools had grown tremendously without basic expenses associated with these products being recovered as the vast majority of these products were freely available via the aforementioned websites.
Today, BertoTools Limited launches out into an economy of traumatic uncertainty. However, it is our belief that the potential for success has never been greater as we have an opportunity to reach out to the world through our expanding array of products which can be succinctly categorized as follows:
Databases * Worksheets * EBooks * Music
We look ahead, as servants of education, confident that the sector will be a fruitful one not just for us but primarily through our offerings, a source for innovative educational products designed to assist students and teachers alike in the quest for knowledge and attainment.
