Description
Today’s schools face growing challenges, as teachers must adapt to a generation of students immersed in digital culture. Competing with the immediacy of the internet and mobile apps, educators must adopt new strategies to keep learners engaged.
This course equips teachers to place students at the centre of the learning process through educational apps they already use in daily life. Using real classroom scenarios, participants will explore discovery-based methodologies that enhance creativity, motivation, and subject mastery.
From school trips to museum visits, apps can enrich learning across contexts and promote digital inclusion in all disciplines.
