Four experts from primary and secondary education discuss lessons learnt from Covid, how the pandemic experience has changed our practice and the use of education technology – and where we go next.
We offer lots of examples and ideas for specific practices and uses of edtech that are now being adopted permanently by schools, ranging from pedagogy and assessment to blended learning and CPD.
We look at what technology is doing to free up teachers to teach including how it is supporting flexible working, teaching and learning, blended and flipped learning, homework, formative and formal assessment and more. We also look at what schools can do to close the digital divide and improve access to technology.
This podcast has been produced in association with Pearson and comes alongside a free SecEd and Pearson guide which also focuses on the future of digital learning. Download the pdf via https://bit.ly/seced-DL
