Unlocking the power of teachers' digital competence: “Empowering learners”
Descrizione del corso
Digital competence does not solely refer to mastering technology but rather to the way that teachers can use this technology to enhance their professional practice, empower their learners and improve learning outcomes.
In the fourth course of the course series on Unlocking the Power of Teacher Digital Competence, we focus on ways to empower learners. Using digital technologies can help teachers to create innovative learning experiences, resulting in learners becoming more actively engaged. Digital technologies can be used by teachers to personalise learning and tailor it according to individual learners’ levels, interests and needs. However, it is important to avoid amplifying inequality, for example in terms of learner access to technology or lack of skills. Accessibility for all learners is crucial, including those with special educational needs.
The course is offered by the European School Education Platform. Visit our website for more information.
