Would you like to upskill yourself in Digital tools and how to use them to support teaching and learning?

CreATE at Auckland University has a free online learning series 23Teaching.com. This is designed to expose and upskill students enrolled in Education degrees on the use of digital tools in the classroom with strong links to the pedagogy.

As it is free on the Internet, class teachers across New Zealand are welcome to participate. One 'thing' comes out each week with some videos, resources and ideas for use in the classroom.

It seems to me to be a great way to get started with digital tools in the classroom with no pressure and at no cost!
