Digitally enabled learning environments

Pedagogy in a digitally enabled learning environment Home

Practitioners should be able

  • To make effective use of digital environments in order to increase access to the curriculum. 
  • To provide, and continue to develop, simple and streamlined processes to engage with learners and peers.  
  • To make use of automation when appropriate to process and manage data and repetitive tasks, for example processing digital forms, utilising self-marking tools, resource booking systems, social media alerting/posting.

Support and Examples

School leaders and practitioners make use of the digital environments available to them to increase the curriculum offer.  For example, inclusion and support for local authority / regional virtual school offers, delivery of specialist knowledge via digital services eg national and local code-a-longs and sharing expertise across a cluster.

Practitioners make use of the virtual environment to share learning materials on a regular basis, eg through the use of teams / onenote / google classroom.

Practitioners make use of the metrics and reporting data available via digital platforms to better understand learner engagement.

Practitioners ensure that learners are aware of further support through national offers such as

  • esgoil
  • westOS
  • locally developed anytime learning resources via your local authority or RIC

Use of digital tools to provide effective feedback quickly, such as assignment marking using rubric, pre-prepared feedback based on responses to quiz questions, audio notes
