Course Summary
The challenges of today´s school are increasingly demanding for nowadays teachers.
Students today belong to a digital generation—one that engages, explores, and discovers knowledge through technology. The Future Classroom embraces this reality by integrating digital tools into teaching, placing students at the center of the learning process, and transforming the way knowledge is shared and experienced.
This course aims to update teachers in order to overcome this challenge and place students in the center of learning by doing what they know best: using digital apps.
Objectives: During this course, we’ll use teachers’ and students’ daily life situations while using educational apps to transfer knowledge. Our methodology is learning by discovery to promote motivation and creativity for educational subjects. These apps can be used in every school activity: school trips, museums, students’ everyday life and so on.
By leveraging these digital tools, teachers can better motivate students in their subjects!
