EdTech in Action sessions are your chance to explore and engage with educational technology—the ideas, tools, and techniques that use digital technology to facilitate changes in knowledge, skills, or attitudes. Each session introduces a new EdTech tool and presents two replicable EdTech routines that you can adapt for your classroom or for administrative use to build students' digital skills. In this second session, you will learn about using ScreenPal as an instructional tool—not just for the classroom, but for program onboarding as well.
- Any instructor, administrator, or staff member looking to improve their instruction with students using technology or learn about EdTech routines
This professional development activity/course is designed for:
Are you searching for a way to more effectively help your learners build knowledge in a virtual learning context by creating narrated video content? Are you looking to more effectively communicate key information for learner recruitment and onboarding with your students through multilingual onboarding videos? Join this EdTech in Action session on instruction with ScreenPal, which will equip you with the skills and knowledge to leverage screen recording technology from ScreenPal (formerly Screencast-O-Matic) in practical, thoughtful, routine-based ways to provide key instructional information to your adult learners. You will also have the opportunity to test out one of the ScreenPal routines during the session to model this practice and prepare to implement it.
Using World Education’s EdTech Integration Strategy Toolkit as a guide, the four-part EdTech in Action learning series explores practical EdTech routines for adult educators and program administrators. Each session will focus on a specific EdTech tool, demonstrating two key routines—one instructional and one programmatic—for its effective use. Participants will learn to identify the tool's potential, apply foundational skills to implement demonstrated routines, and adapt strategies to meet their program's unique needs.
