teacher developed digital content

Why digital content?

• can make a significant difference in student learning and understanding, and can enhance a teacher’s ability to demonstrate concepts

• Can be used as an amplifier. It performs more efficiently, tedious processes that might be done by hand.

• by providing novel representations which make salient some aspect of a concept which is difficult to make explicit.

CONCLUSION

• Teacher developed digital content is a powerful tool for teaching and learning.

• In order to utilize it to its full potential, careful consideration must be given to how students’ opportunities and abilities to learn are brought out in their environment and are related to how its use is structured within the world of work.

• Teachers must have a deep, integrated knowledge of the content to be taught, the students who are to learn it, and the constraints of digital content.
