Digital Creativity in the Primary Classroom PDST TiE

This summer course is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of how to create digital teaching, learning, and assessment resources. The course will emphasise developing the essential skills and knowledge required to create digital resources tailored to individual teaching needs and the specific needs of pupils. 

During the course, participants will receive step-by-step guidance on the creation process of digital resources. They will be introduced to various software and applications, such as graphic design tools, podcasting tools, and video editing platforms. These platforms will help them design and produce high-quality digital resources that are visually appealing and engaging for pupils. 

The course also covers other essential topics, such as digital citizenship and online safety, finding and selecting high-quality digital content, and exploring the Digital Learning Framework.
