SchoolNet has provided a number of free online courses in technology integration this year mainly aimed at its premium members (a free membership to South African teachers). We are pleased to announce the next two short, online courses for August and September 2012, and invite you to sign up for the August course via the Google forms. These short courses are supported by weekly optional 30 minute webinars, and offer a certificate of Completion when completed.
Course content:
This course is aimed at teachers who would like to use more web tools in their teaching even if they only have one computer in the classroom – their own. The aim is to introduce a choice of three interesting and useful webtools every week (two via the course blog and one via a webinar). The course requirement is that participants try out and share with the group at least two of the tools they have created during the course. The twelve tools that are presented will be from the following categories:
Week 1: Mindmapping tools, Podcasting tools, Photosharing tools,
Week 2: Screencasting tools, Curating tools, Classroom Management tools
Week 3: Video creation tools, Presentation tools, Document sharing tools
Week 4: Vocabulary tools, Review games, Backchannelling tools,
