Research evidence can give teachers possible approaches to support their students’ learning. On this course, you will explore case studies and research from expert teachers and leading academics on how technology can be used to support teaching and learning at school.
You will discover the best ways to introduce new concepts to students and ensure they remember them, as well as provide feedback to guide their progress.
