Thank you for expressing an interest in the free online TECHNIFY YOUR CLASSROOM course on offer from SchoolNetSA. This will be a four week course for Schoolnet Premium Members offered during August. This course is aimed at teachers who would like to use more web tools in their teaching even if they only have one computer in the classroom. The aim is to introduce a choice of three interesting and useful, free webtools every week (two via the course blog and one via an optional webinar). The course requirement is that participants try out and share with the group at least two of the items they have created during the course, as well as write a reflective comment on the course blog each week.. The twelve tools that are presented will be from the following categories:
The suggested outline is:
Week 1: Mindmapping tools, Podcasting tools, Photosharing tools
Week 2: Screencasting tools, Curating tools, Classroom Management tools
Week 3: Video creation tools, Presentation tools, Document sharing tools
Week 4: Vocabulary tools, Review games, Backchannelling tools
This course is supported by 'how to' webinars and offers a Certificate of Completion from SchoolNet if certain requirements are met. Please fill in the form below if you would like to join us. You will then be sent an email directing you to the course platform shortly before the course starts in August. The course is arranged in such a way that you can easily catch up if you start late.
