EdTech and Learning
The goal of this intensive microdegree program is to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and habits that will enable them to create educational projects and effectively educate in a digital or hybrid environment. Graduates will gain theoretical skills, practice suggestions and learn strategies to effectively create stimulating learning situations using ICT/IT and meet their educational goals. Learning with the help of ICT/IT has its own specificities, both on the side of the technology, the teacher and the learner. Each tool has different possibilities, opportunities and limits. Similarly, in different learning situations, the learner has certain capacities and previous experiences, which need to be taken into account when preparing the learning experience. The course offers knowledge of creating learning situations in digital applications, games, VR, as well as a legislative and strategic framework for education.
The EdTech and Education programme is a comprehensive module that introduces students to the theories of learning in digital environments, the principles of digital didactics and specific tools such as modern eLearning platforms, educational games and small-scale applications. The programme will introduce students to current opportunities and help them build competences to creatively find their own solutions. The programme will use a variety of teaching methods - it will combine direct teaching with self-study, project-based team learning and students will be able to consult their own practice-based ideas as part of mentoring.
The course consists of 10 core topics/modules: Technology in education (EdTech) - current research; Specific of digital education; Constructivist teaching and basic principles of digital media; Legislative and strategic frameworks of education: strategy 2030+; New informatics; Advanced design: specifics of educational software development; Digital didactics for disadvantaged students; People skills for digital environment; Media and information education; VR in education
Each of the modules consists of a direct teaching component, which is a combination of lecture and seminar, practical assignments and self-study of the prescribed literature and learning support in Moodle
