  • Technology Integration Frameworks: Explore various frameworks such as TPACK/C-TPACK, SAMR, and UNESCO Guidance for GenAI Use in Education, equipping you with the knowledge to effectively integrate technology into your teaching practices in the world powered by GenAI.
  • Digital Tools Categorisation: Learn to categorise digital tools according to UDL principles, enhancing your ability to select the right tools for diverse learning needs.
  • Hands-On Design Session: Apply theoretical knowledge in a practical session, using digital tools embeded with GenAI features learnt to design a learner-centered lesson plan.
  • Comprehensive Lesson Planning: Utilize a comprehensive toolkit of lesson design template and rubric provided to articulate and implement the chosen digital tools, fostering engaging and inclusive learning experiences.
  • Peer Evaluation: Gain valuable feedback through peer evaluations using the C-TPACK rubric, refining your lesson plans for optimal effectiveness.
  • Reflective Practice: Consolidate your learning using a preferred note-taking technology platform, ensuring continuous improvement in your teaching methods.
This course empowers you to design the future of learning, creating environments where all learners thrive in an inclusive and technology-driven setting. You will walk away with a systematic approach and a suite of practical tools to assess instructors' technology integration competencies, design engaging learning with effective technology integration, and evaluate the learner-centredness of lesson designs seamlessly.
