What marks out Eye2eye Britain Panoramic as a resource for your school is the sheer scale and quality of its content, brought to life by innovative specially programmed software. Its comprehensive coverage of the whole of mainland Britain - every town, the whole coast, all periods, all sides of life - means whatever project you’re doing, there’s something relevant in Eye2eye Britain - and it’s easy to find.
 

For busy teachers, this has important benefits. Not only does Eye2eye Britain provide material for many new lessons (see free lesson plans below), but you can also use it to add colour (and IT experience) to your existing, tried and tested study plans. Update existing lessons without starting from scratch - saving all the preparation time that involves.

If you have a whiteboard - preferably interactive - use Eye2eye Britain as a spectacular teacher-driven resource, transporting your class anywhere in Britain at the tap of a pointer to illustrate any topic. Fill your whiteboard with a 360° panorama for any curriculum topic, then turn it round and point our important features. Now you can also do this within your PowerPoints, using Eye2eye Britain as a source of moving panoramas to copy into your PowerPoints complete with caption and controls. This is a unique opportunity to engage the interest of pupils - especially the 65% of visual learners - in many Geography and History topics.

Ask pupils to find views and moving panoramas matching any essay, notes or news-sheet they’re working on, and copy them in as illustrations (requires either of the school packs). Do the same yourself for your notes and presentations. Find a few key facts and views yourself, then give pupils clues to find them themselves - a sort of information treasure hunt. Such exercises reinforce learning with fun, the satisfaction of self-discovery, and images to remember. The higher the Key Stage, the more autonomously pupils can search and research.

  • Shakespeare (English Literature)
    Search the captions for ‘Shakespeare’ to view many locations where he lived and worked - and help pupils take an interest in his work. He is one of many authors, poets and painters with this coverage. Here we see 2 of 31 photos and 7 panoramas you find with this search.
