Professional learning for our schools will ensure that they are fully supported in using the devices effectively to transform learning, teaching, and assessment.
Currently a diverse and comprehensive universal professional learning offering is provided through a range of online and in person sessions, guidance and support. This is enhanced with a digital learning network and the Fife Digital Literacy and Learning Progression Framework to support planning and assessment of digital opportunities, experiences, skills, and development.
All our professional learning highlights the accessibility tools that learners can use on a wide range of devices to tailor their experiences to their own comforts, as well as some of the ways these applications can take advantage of the built-in tools of devices.
Universally available accessibility tools are a key theme throughout the offerings provided across a range of teams and services including ATTS/ ASIST and SLS, and these ensure an ever-growing opportunity for learners to empower themselves as part of their learning journey by taking control over the tools that best suit their needs and preferences.
Support for schools is carefully planned to include an awareness of the tools, the curriculum rationales, and the pedagogy behind their use to ensure that the pupil’s needs and opportunities to enhance teaching and learning experiences are the driving force behind the way the technology is fully utilised. Current research is used to inform practitioners of safe ways to engage with new and exciting innovations in a meaningful and impactful manner.
The universal professional learning offer for all staff will promote a consistent approach, aligning with the education software library and benefiting the whole authority approach with the effective and transformative use of digital technology for enhancing learning, teaching, and assessment.
