Why Autology World?
- Safe focused Internet environment
Autology works a little like Google in terms of its search facility, but it is completely different in that Autology does not search through the whole internet, it only searches through the 50,000 or so quality web sites that our team of qualified teachers have identified as relevant and suitable plus the textbooks from Heinemann, revision guides from Letts/Lonsdale and Encyclopaedia Britannica. In this way, it provides students with a safe and focused internet environment and eliminates time-wasted associated with lengthy internet searching.
Autology is a live environment and we are continually adding to the resources available, so that the range of materials becomes ever richer and more comprehensive. We welcome your feedback on areas in which you feel we need to improve or beef up our coverage, so please let us know via our feedback facility. - Amazing value for money - saves hundreds of pounds
Autology represents unbelievably good value for money incorporating a huge variety of valuable resources.
See the list of available resources here: A list of available resources.
If you were to buy all these products as an individual, it would cost thousands of pounds.
With Autology, your student has their own comprehensive and relevant library and you can share this within your family, making the purchase of Autology incredibly cost effective. - UK Curriculum content. Textbooks online plus tens of thousands of teacher selected websites
Although Autology will be suitable for students from all English language speaking countries because essentially content is content, e.g. osmosis, oxbow lakes, photosynthesis, nuclear fusion, etc, etc are all concepts that will be covered in all student curricula. They are not unique to the UK. However, at the moment the Autology resource bank is biased towards the UK curriculum and it includes a huge range of textbook and revision guide content that to buy as an individual would have cost thousands of pounds.
A full list of the textbook/revision guide content is detailed here - An excellent tool for revision and coursework throughout a student's life, up to and including GCSE & A-Level
What we have done with Autology is provide a highly focussed set of resources for students to use in an environment where they are most comfortable, on their PC, on-line. Text books are the least personalised form of learning because what students need is generally on a page or a few pages and very few people, even the most dedicated scholars, will ever read a text book from cover to cover.
With Autology, students can access the relevant information, at exactly the right point or page and whenever they wish (not just when they have their text book with them).
Autology's 'Push' technology is completely unique and once a student has downloaded the 'toolbar' they will actually be able to work on assignments in Microsoft Word and reference materials relevant to what they are writing , as they are writing will be made available to them and pushed to them via the toolbar . This provides a fantastic and unrivalled resource for students to use as they work on home assignments. - Regular use will improve marks and grades
Although Autology is a relatively new phenomenon there are dozens of schools in the UK who have been working with Autology over the past 12 year or so and all indications are that students using it are already improving their academic performance, particularly in comparison with those students who are not using it.

We live in a 'knowledge economy'. The importance of a good rounded education has never been more vital. The jobs and careers that students of today enter into may not have been invented yet. It is vital to provide students with every advantage so that they remain fresh, bright, inventive and competitive.
Autology provides students with an excellent value for money resource that will ensure they have all the right resources available to them when and where they need them
Autology is a leading edge technology product, utilising Autonomy's globally successful pattern matching and concept searching technology at its core
