This document outlines a teacher training course at the Christ Church Cathedral Primary School in Lagos, Nigeria on the pedagogical use of information and communication technologies (ICT). The course aims to teach teachers how to effectively integrate technology into their classroom lessons to address issues like limited computer access and unreliable internet. Through group work, peer tutoring, and implementing sample lesson plans, teachers will learn principles of technology-enhanced learning and how to locate, assess, and use different technological tools. Assessment will be through self-reflection, peer comments, and student feedback, with no external evaluation. The school will receive materials and a Raspberry Pi computer to support the training.
There has been a shift in how students use technology in learning, and how teachers use technology in their teaching strategies via blended and flipped classrooms. But how much similar technology do teachers use to communicate and collaborate with each other?
In these slides, Linda Butler and Jubilee Nicodemus go ‘beyond email’ to explore the possibilities of collaborative teaching using Google Docs, Whatsapp and image/video sharing.
Other technologies that participants are using include Microsoft Teams, Moodle Forums, Zoom, Google Hangouts, Slack and Asana.
LTS Lunch 27 Jan 10 - Tools for Learning Designaewp2
__What is Learning Design?
The focus of course designers is often first on covering the requisite ground in a logical structure, second on developing the best possible explications of difficult areas, and only third on lighting a fire of inquiry in their students. This fire is nourished when students are involved and challenged, stifled when they are passive recipients of knowledge. Planning how learning will happen needs as much consideration and care as what will be learned.
__Design Tools
Modern technology can be integrated in teaching to give new flexibility in teaching styles, whether at the level of activities, courses or whole programmes. It also provides tools to help us extract the benefits of that flexibility:
- by making the pedagogical structure more visible and explicit to students and planners, thereby promoting understanding and reflection
- by serving as a description or template to be collaborated on, adapted and reused
- by sharing best practices and understanding between those involved in design and teaching
__Course Tools
CARET's Course Tools project is developing easy-to-use web tools for fast and flexible access to course information and planning at Cambridge. I will briefly introduce the Lecture Explorer and Oxford's Phoebe.
__Learning Design Initiative
CARET is partnering with the OU to develop “a learning design methodology and suite of practical tools and resources that bridge between good pedagogic practice and effective use of new technologies”; broadly structured around understanding the curriculum design process, supporting collaborative design, offering support such as case studies, course templates and ‘best practice’ checklists, visualising designs in various ways, and sharing the results. I will introduce CompendiumLD and Cloudworks.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.
