Techno-pedagogy refers to teaching practices that take into account both pedagogical (teaching and learning methods, motivation, the development of students’ skills) and technological aspects (using computers, the Internet, interactive whiteboards etc.).
Techno-pedagogy focuses on the development of online courses and online learning resources. The goal is to support the assimilation and establishment of the learner's knowledge through tools that enable interactive practice, collaborative learning and the improvement of the learning experience.
The techno-pedagogical work accompanies many stages in the development of the course:
|
1 |
Organization and decipering |
At the stage of organizing and sorting out the course structure and content, we will characterize the components of the existing or planned course with the assistance of the course lecturers. We will write a proposal for a superstructure for the course that will enable active and meaningful learning for the student. We will decide on the structure of the course and its various parts: filmed units, reading passages and planning of the active learning that will accompany the teaching units, while raising initial ideas for learning technologies solutions appropriate to the course’s needs. |
|
2 |
Writing content |
At the stage of writing all of the parts of the course content, we will develop the course structure into a detailed program, characterize all of the learning items and adapt them to the technological environment. |
|
3 |
Filming and editing |
During the filming and editing of the course videos, we will accompany the photography and editing team, and we will start uploading the learning activities onto the learning management system (LMS). |
|
4 |
Course website |
At this point, we will finish setting up the course on LMS according to the planned structure, integrating all learning resources. |
|
5 |
Control and upgrade |
We will examine how the course will be studied by the students, and we will correct problems that have arisen in order to improve the course. |
