You are a teacher who’s used to standing in front of a class, engaging directly with your students. Now, you’d like to bring the richness of the internet and its many learning resources into your teaching—and perhaps, in time, even shift your course toward more online activities.

You already use computers and smartphones in your daily work and are comfortable navigating the digital world. Still, you’re not a tech enthusiast, nor do you have the time or desire to become one. You simply want to make smart, practical use of the technology that surrounds us.

This course is designed for you. Together, we will explore the challenges and opportunities of this transformation—step by step—sharing experiences and identifying what works best in your own teaching context. Our shared goal is for you to confidently use digital tools and strategies that truly enhance your students’ learning experience.

To what extent are your students accustomed to learning independently and taking responsibility for their own success?
If they still tend to rely solely on your guidance and instructions, it may be time to gradually foster a more learner-centred culture—one that encourages curiosity, initiative, and self-reflection.

Supporting students in becoming more self-directed doesn’t mean leaving them on their own. It means creating opportunities for them to make choices, set goals, and take ownership of their learning process—while you guide, coach, and inspire them along the way.

Pioneers among teachers are often the ones who adopt new methods and ideas early. That’s wonderful, as their enthusiasm can inspire others. However, for a lasting and sustainable transformation, it’s far more effective when a group of motivated teachers work together to develop and refine new approaches collaboratively.

Involving the school management early on is also essential. Their support can help align innovation with the school’s broader goals, ensure access to necessary resources, and create the conditions for long-term success.

Thanks to the internet, it is possible to address learners individually and let them have their say, even in large classes. This makes it possible to conduct formative learning assessments or surveys with significantly less effort.

The internet offers valuable learning content on every conceivable subject and for every level, which you can use free of charge. These learning objects can also be adapted to your own needs.  Finally, you can also record learning sequences and create multimedia learning content and make it available to students.

Thanks to the flexibility in terms of time and location, people can take your course even if they have family or work commitments.
