  • align teaching and learning activities and assessment methods with intended learning outcomes (ILOs); and   
  • select appropriate teaching and learning activities and assessment methods to promote learning.

This module explores how e-learning and innovative pedagogical strategies can be adopted to enhance teaching and student learning. A series of technology enhanced learning (TEL) tools will be demonstrated.

On completion of the module, participants will be able to:

  • identify technology enhanced learning (TEL) strategies to promote learning and teaching; and   
  • prepare e-learning activities with different technology enhanced learning (TEL) tools. 

This module provides participants with an opportunity to reflect on their own teaching practices. They can choose from:

i. completing an online assignment; or
