We know how hard it is to learn a new tool for teaching – therefore these sessions will:
- Provide consistent and regular immersion into the Engageli platform
- Focus initially on building basic familiarisation leading to more advanced features
- Provide technical AND pedagogical support for your course requirements
- Bring together like-minded colleagues who know how important it is to innovate using online and digital technologies
- Encourage Course Coordinators to design a bespoke approach to L&T using Engageli
Engageli Explorers sessions: Eat, Engage, Experiment!
These sessions are currently suspended. Support is provided throuh School-based implementaiton workshops or individual/group sessions by request.
