Digital tools and blended learning

Create positive feelings and increase the motivation
and well-being of students

Digital tools and blended learning go hand in hand, working together to make learning more interesting and effective. Taking more than one approach to the learning process will activate students and make lessons more exciting for them. Blended learning mixes regular classroom teaching with online activities. You can blend physical environments with different digital and non-digital learning tools. Digital tools, like mobile applications and online teamwork platforms, can make your classroom more interactive and the learning process more student-centered. During this course you will learn to use various digital tools and mix things up with blended learning, combining the best of traditional and online teaching.

Student-centered learning engages students
in their own learning process.

During this Erasmus+ course you will

  • familiarize yourself with the world-renowned Finnish education system
  • explore how to use different digital tools such as mobile apps and online platforms  
  • get hands-on experience in using blended learning in your classroom
  • create enjoyable interactive lessons using both digital and traditional tools
  • discuss and exchange ideas with other course participants in a multicultural environment
  • network with teachers and staff members working in the field of education in Europe.

This seven-day course is aimed at teachers, trainers, head teachers, school and education managers and other school staff who would like to learn more about blended learning and new ways to combine digital tools with traditional teaching methods in the classroom.

Methods to activate students in a classroom are often quite simple and easy to apply. Goal setting and working together are keywords for a successful learning experience and engaged students. This will also help you in making learning more fun.
