ICT In Education Course

Target group:
This course is intended for anyone with a desire to increase their proficiency in using technology
in the classroom, especially for those educators wishing to learn how to effectively use
e-learning platforms to run online courses. The course content is not limited to teachers of a
specific subject.

Pre-departure:
Trainees will receive a questionnaire, which will provide information on their teaching
background, qualifications, and previous experience with e-learning.

Objectives:
- Providing general information about ICT within various classes
- Defining ICT usage in education with its benefits, provide teachers with practical ideas for
how they can incorporate technology into their existing lessons.
- Familiarize teachers with current Internet trends and how they can be applied in the
creation of an e-lesson
- Pinpointing possible downsides of ICT in education as well as in real life and how to avoid
it
- Provide teachers with resources and various tools with which they can augment their
e-learning content.
- Explaining of usage and giving users tips concerning various ICT tools within, as well as,
outside of classes.
- Introducing ways of motivation and creative thinking through ICT for both teachers and
students
- Introducing and explaining ways of enhanced communication within the teaching and
learning process through ICT
- Giving a space for exchange of experiences and good practices among people coming
from different countries who work in the same field

Methodology:
This course will be structured into 8 different training modules, each of which covers a different
aspect of using e-learning in either a traditional classroom or an online setting. Coursework will
contain a mix of theoretical and practical knowledge, often allowing the teachers to interact with
the e-learning systems in a hands-on way. They will practice the necessary skills in order to be
able to effectively use their own e-learning systems with their own students.

The methodological approach:

Students will be given the theoretical information that they need to effectively create and
impliment their own e-learning solutions. Using this theoretical knowledge, they will then
complete several practical tasks designed to teach them how to properly and effectively use an
e-learning platform. Each module will attempt to incorporate the existing knowledge and
experience of the trainees in an effort to create a helpful learning environment while at the same
time demonstrating the importance of collaboration and shared creation in the e-learning
process. In addition, each trainee will produce a sample e-lesson according to their
backgrounds and needs. The instructor will present information, guide the students through the
practical components, and offer feedback and suggestions.

exchange ideas/experiences.
