Guides for use of technology to the professional standards for teachers

by LLUK, 8 March 2010
This article is recommended for: Academic Staff, FE, WBL

The 3 guides are available via:

www.lluk.org/techguides.htm

·         Using Technology for Learning Support Practitioners in the Lifelong Learning Sector

·         Application Guide for Leaders and Managers to Lead the Effective Use of Technology in the Lifelong Learning Sector

·         Using Technology to Support Learning for Teachers, Tutors and Trainers in the Lifelong Learning Sector

Potential uses of these interactive guides include to:

    * identify professional development needs
    * develop new knowledge and skills
    * develop existing skills to meet the specific needs of learners in new circumstances
    * share and disseminate good practice and
    * aid curriculum development, delivery and assessment.

 

What next?

A review of the use of technology in the content and delivery of initial teacher training has just been conducted, with funding from Becta and BIS, to ascertain the following:

 

    * What are the skills needs and gaps of ‘teacher educators’ in using technology for learning as they deliver initial teacher training?

 

    * What changes, if any, need to be made to the current PTLLS, CTLLS and DTLLS qualifications in order that the FE workforce can effectively harness technology for learning?
