"This course came at a time during the summer and I wasn't sure I would be excited to complete it however it was clear from day one when the first assignments were released that Jen and Adam has spent a lot of time thinking carefully and critically about the content to cover. From a range of collaborative tasks, videos, questions and discussion prompts, Wakelet collections and inspiring resources. I have completed a online course that was so engaging and rich of learning. The combination of assignments and weekly meets were such a vital part of the course. If you are thinking about using social media to empower your learners but are not sure where to start this is the course for you! Thank you so much Jen and Adam for all your hard work."

"I really enjoyed this course as it gave we a chance to discuss some of my teaching practice with other educators around the world, but it also just gave me a chance to talk with other educators around the world. The course really helped me during this 'stay at home' time to be in touch with some awesome people. Adam and Jennifer were there for everyone to shout out and continue with the discussion. Can I come back for the second cohort?"

Empowered Digital Leaders is a great course if you want to bust any myths around the use of social media in a primary classroom. It helps you reflect on your social media identity. The course content empowers you to make connections with your own prior knowledge and form deeper understanding of how media contributes to the developments of 21st C skills. Regular interaction with the course leaders and my cohort members helped me gain more perspectives about media and its uses. I strongly recommend this course especially if you find yourself constantly wondering how you could integrate media into your daily teaching and learning practices."
