Description

In the second course of the course series on Unlocking the Power of Teacher Digital Competence, we focus on effectively helping teachers identify recourses that best fit their needs, their teaching style, and their learners. At the same time, we'll assist teachers in modifying and adapting resources to meet their exact requirements, learn how to share them responsibly, protect sensitive data, manage content ethically and respect copyright rules.

Learning objectives

As a participant, you will:

Analyse and select digital resources based on criteria that need specific teaching and learning aims,
Apply design principles and process es to create digital resources to meet teaching and learning,
Select existing digital resources, taking into consideration copyright and distribution licences, to modify and adapt them to meet teaching and learning aims,
Define and apply protection and security measures for the storage, management and access of digital content,
Select and apply copyright licences when sharing digital resources you create, supporting open educational resources.

Methodology & assessment

The course is offered as an asynchronous course with flexibility in regard to when and where participants follow the course content and join the course activities. Modules open each week and remain open for the duration of the course, with a final deadline in place for the submission of a course product. Participants are required to actively contribute to the course activities by sharing their work and submitting a course product. This product is submitted, and peer assessed by three peers in the final module of the course.

Certification details

Upon successful completion of the course, a digital course certificate is awarded. The certificate shows the name of the learner and key course details such as the estimated learning hours, the learning objectives, and a link to the course homepage.
