An Evolving Learning Space
I’ll be logging on each week to blog about the most exciting
and relevant issues regarding education and technology. I’m hoping that as this
blog evolves, readers will find it a great place to share their views and
discuss the issue of the week! Whether that be a technology development in education
or a new approach to teaching IT in schools.
Virtual learning is a huge commodity in the education
industry, however how many schools truly take advantage of it? As technology
advances and the expectation of future employers’ increases, how can schools
better prepare their students for their future careers using IT skills and
training?
VLE’s provide a fantastic solution for introducing students to new integrated technologies. Concepts such as the Cloud, Apps, information sharing and staying safe when browsing the web become a simple business of everyday practice with a VLE in the classroom.
Students can learn about uploading files, the visibility of
shared information and data, profile creation and personalisation, as well as more
complex concepts such as coding and the risks of information hacking.
For teachers, the VLE lessens the workload. It’s a prevalent
news story that teachers can’t find the time to do and be everything that is
expected of them.
That’s what makes the VLE such an essential commodity.
Tests can be marked, lesson plans shared, files imported and
integrated directly into your lessons.
Quizzes can be uploaded and set, as well
as reports created and managed, progress tracked, and homework set and
monitored.
That’s what this news blog will be here to discuss. The
importance of technology and digital education in today’s climate and, most
importantly, how that’s affecting you.
Let’s share a thought or two and discover together how learning platforms have evolved!
