PDST Technology in Education - new online course for teachers

'Teaching Online for Primary and Post Primary Teachers'

Just a note to let you know that PDST Technology in Education have just launched a completely new online course aimed at teachers who are teaching online or remotely at the moment: 'Teaching Online for Primary and Post Primary Teachers'.

The course is available Here

 

The course focuses on how to get started teaching online, finding suitable online resources and how to use them (including Scoilnet, Webwise and World Book online), communicating with students and creating your own content. The course includes:
- lessons on False Information (particularly relevant at the moment) from Webwise
- useful features of World Book Online, such as the ability to translate all content to Gaeilge and other languages
- how to create a Scoilnet Learning Path
- how to use Scoilnet to find resources
- creating audio presentations, videos, screencasts
- digital copyright
- where to find information on school Learning Management Systems and much more
- ideas on activities that can be mediated in an online setting, what works well and tips on how to overcome challenges

We encourage teachers to share their resources and knowledge with colleagues, as well as to ask colleagues for help.

The course draws quite a bit on the content of the two excellent distance learning pages at www.pdst.ie/distancelearning and www.pdsttechnologyineducation.ie/en/Technology/OnlineLearning 

The course is available Here.
