Technology for teaching and learning 1 (TTL 1)

Overview

Technology for Teaching and Learning 1 (TTL 1) is a 3-unit introductory course that explores basic knowledge and skills and values in the use of technology for teaching and learning.

The course pack for TTL 1 will have learners practice the use of ICT in teaching and learning and immediately apply what they learned throughout the course.

“Tech Onboarding”, “Resource Remix”, and “Playlist Gifts” were projects specifically designed to respond to learning outcomes in TTL-1 (full circles). Still, other projects from the other courses can be modified by the instructor to be used for TTL-1 learning outcomes (open circles).
