Inhalt / Contenu

In the last one or two years we have seen not only a large increase in digital platforms and materials, but also a big increase in the use of these digital materials. We had to quickly become familiar with various platforms and tools, but we may not have had the time to think about the pedagogy behind all this content. In this workshop we will look at the definition of "Digital Pedagogy", explore the ideas behind the digital tools for (teenage) learners, and look at examples taken from the new digital platform Cambridge One. We will learn to recognise the pedagogy and reasoning behind digital platforms and materials, which will help us choose the best content for our learners, leading to better results.
