What it is

Scootle is a free digital learning repository for Australian educators, available through the web and an iOS app. It provides resources aligned with Australian Curriculum content descriptions and elaborations from Foundation to Year 10. Subjects include English, Mathematics, Science, Humanities and Social Sciences, The Arts, Technologies, Health and Physical Education, Work Studies, and Languages. Materials range from interactive multimedia, images, audio and video to courses, text, assessments, downloadable resources, work samples, curriculum collections, teacher ideas and units of work. Teachers can find quality-assured resources with student activities and teacher support, then assemble personalised learning paths for individuals, groups or learning purposes. Students open a path with a unique PIN without logging in. Teachers can export paths as spreadsheets or PDFs, share them with colleagues, or place them in a searchable bank for others to adapt. Registration uses eligible education or university credentials, while guests can continue without them. Scootle was founded in 2010 and is headquartered in Melbourne.
