Product Description
"The mediocre teacher
tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher
demonstrates. The great teacher inspires." William Arthur
Ward.
The MAX CertICT: Certificate in Teaching with Technology is our new
online international qualification, designed and developed by the
Maximus Plus team of educators. The course examines a range of
useful technology-related skills and tools which are immediately
applicable in the classroom. Course participants develop basic
computer literacy skills, learn about various approaches to using
technology in the classroom, explore (free) online tools, and have
the opportunity to put these into practice over the duration of the
course itself.
The course is hands-on virtual [VLE] classroom practice.
Participants leave the course confident not only in using a range
of ICT (Information and Communications Technology) tools with their
own learners in their own f2f and VLE teaching contexts, but
also with an increased awareness of broader issues such as ICT and
assessment, how to integrate ICT into a teaching syllabus, and
familiarity with commercially available ICT materials.
