How to Learn With Sycamore

Sycamore's pre-recorded videos or videos from previous conferences are a powerful way to deliver content to our customers about the software.

Here are some key takeaways:

• Videos can be more efficient than a live webinar because they stay focused on the subject.

• Videos are a cost-effective way for large groups of users to learn the skills they need to work in certain modules within Sycamore.

• Videos can be watched repeatedly so that a user can watch the video while also working in the particular module he or she is learning.

• Video links can be saved for viewing at a later time.

Microlearning enhances learning and performance in the most efficient and effective manner possible through short pieces of content. Studies have found that learners learn best and are more likely to recall learning when they can process information through small, manageable chunks instead of through a longer and more concentrated time frame.

Sycamore School uses software called Pathwright to create and host Microlearning courses. We have several courses available for teachers and super users that can be taken at any time. Just sign up for a course to receive your invite.

Our online manual is very robust and provides detailed information about the many areas of Sycamore. We also offer online manuals for the Parent interface and Student interface.

Sycamore also uses Social Media to share helpful solutions for schools. Check out our Facebook(@SycamoreEducation), Twitter (@SycamoreEdu), and Instagram (@SycamoreEducation) for news about Sycamore, as well as links to our blog series with helpful hints, tips and news.
