‘e-learning 4 schools’ is at the centre of online course development supporting teachers in their quest for sound evolving pedagogy that releases them from classroom-based learning and extends the 60-minute lesson to 24/7 online learning.
The “The Missing Link” series of courses is designed to support teachers in their development of appropriate pedagogies for use with a learning platform. Traditional learning methodologies used in the classroom become limited and less successful when used with a learning platform. The “The Missing Link” series helps teachers realise the full potential of a learning platform.
Currently, if a teacher wants to learn how to use a learning platform, there are only skills-based courses, videos and materials available to them. ‘The Missing Link’ creates a unique blend of new pedagogies and learning platform ‘tools’ that creates exciting and vibrant online learning for learners.
For example, ‘e-learning 4 schools’ courses help teachers understand how the worksheet they created for the classroom may be wholly inappropriate in a learning platform. ‘e-learning 4 schools’ will help them turn ‘dead-end’ worksheets into exciting, interactive online learning experiences.
‘e-learning 4 schools’ courses are demand-led not pushed. In other words, teachers can access their course when it suits them not when it suits a trainer’s availability.
Courses are available 24/7, 365 days a year – all that is needed is an internet connection – no additional software or materials are required – everything a teacher needs is online and always available.
