Technology in post-16 teaching and learning
We live in a fast moving world where technology continues to transform our everyday lives and we all need to keep pace, especially those at the forefront of training the next generation.
Trying out new technologies and social media might seem daunting at first, but getting to grips with new tools could be a way to rejuvenate your subject and equip your learners with the skills they'll need to live and work in the 21st century.
Lifelong Learning UK has created a series of resources to help develop skills and knowledge in this area, so you can take every opportunity to help learners develop in new and fulfilling ways.
From voting software which gives instant feedback, to wikis for group collaborations, find examples of best practice which could help you integrate new technologies into teaching, one step at a time.
Follow the links below to view the resources. You can also watch this presentation, which highlights some of the key technology-related skills we think the workforce needs to develop. (At the bottom right of the image there is the option to open the presentation in full screen - this should help you to view it more clearly.)
