Enacting E–Pedagogy and Blended Learning in English Language Classrooms (Primary and Secondary)

Overview

In the SFEd course on E-Pedagogy and Blended Learning, you will:

• actively inquire into:

  • your practice of harnessing EdTech, including Artificial Intelligence (AI), to foster active student learning in a blend of in-person and online learning contexts;

  • your design of lessons, and the selection and use of EdTech, including AI, in these contexts; and

• apply your learning about e-pedagogy and blended learning to promote active student learning in participatory, connected and reflective classrooms.

You can take this course at an appropriate Level of Practice:

Level of Practice and Learning Goals

Proficient Level of Practice: Does independently

Select this course at the Proficient Level of Practice if you:

• wish to have fundamental understanding of the principles of e-pedagogy and blended learning, and to become skilful and independent in your practice of e-pedagogy and blended learning in EL classrooms;

• would like to be able to, on an ongoing basis, reflect on your practice of e-pedagogy and blended learning to improve student learning of EL; and

• plan to apply your learning as you participate in the course.

Learning Goals

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

• demonstrate understanding of the principles of e-pedagogy and blended learning;

• apply your understanding to harness EdTech, including AI tools, to design active learning and formative assessment to nurture future-ready learners; and

• explain your lesson design decisions based on the principles of e-pedagogy and blended learning, the principles of EL teaching and learning (CLLIPS) and EL teaching processes (ACoLADE).

Accomplished Level of Practice: Adapts skilfully

Select this course at the Accomplished Level of Practice if you:

• are skilful and independent in your practice of e-pedagogy and blended learning in EL classrooms;

• would like to become adaptive in your practice of e-pedagogy and blended learning as you enact EL lessons, by being able to:

  • apply Key Applications of Technology (KAT) for differentiating learning experiences to address the diverse learning needs of your students;

  • harness technology to capture and use data on your students' learning so that you can personalise learning experiences for your students; and

• plan to apply and, on an ongoing basis, reflect on your learning as you participate in the course, which involves reviewing a lesson that harnesses EdTech, including AI, for active learning in EL classrooms.

Learning Goals

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

• adapt EL lessons by harnessing EdTech, including AI, for active learning based on:

  • the principles of teaching and learning (CLLIPS) and teaching processes (ACoLADE), and

  • knowledge of learners, acquired through sound use of learning analytics and learning data on students’ learning readiness, interests and learning profiles, collected before, during and after instruction; and

• demonstrate adaptiveness in applying the EdTech Pedagogical Scaffold and KAT to design and enact lessons for active learning in the areas of language learning.
