A year in the life of ZOOdle

A year in the life of ZOOdle

ZOOdle (or Zoo Digital Learning Environment) has been online in its current form for just over a year. In that time 43,700 households accessed our website 507,645 times. We have worked continuously to produce over 200 new resources to connect families with nature, but now life is returning to something like normal, let’s take a step back to reflect on our successes and areas we could improve. We’ll take a deep dive into the analytic data provided by our platform to discover what topics are most popular, where people are joining us from and other surprises the data may hold!
