The course is thoughtfully scheduled for Friday afternoons, accommodating participants who prefer to engage in a dynamic, face-to-face setting or virtually through MS Teams. While the richness of in-person interaction is irreplaceable and highly encouraged, we value the flexibility and inclusivity provided by the online option. Tailored for educators, particularly those seeking to build or enhance their e-learning competencies, this course is committed to demystifying the integration of innovative technologies in pedagogy. Participants will be immersed in a learning experience that combines the robust UCT learning management system with live demonstrations, interactive sessions, and curated scholarly articles. The curriculum focuses on Microsoft's ecosystem and introduces other freely available and institution-supported tools, such as Wooclap and Padlet. The principles taught in the course could be applied to any of the other cloud-based platforms. Each topic is independently run, and knowledge of the previous topics is not required. Beyond merely acquainting educators with new tools, the course aims to facilitate hands-on experience, thereby instilling the confidence and practical know-how to weave technology into their teaching and learning practices.
