Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to familiarise students with the basic software environment they can use during their Bachelor's degree programme, which will help them to streamline their studies, organise their work more effectively, and prepare practical outputs. At the same time, students will learn about security and ethical considerations relating to the use of these tools. The course fulfils the key competences for graduates of teacher training: 1.1 I understand the subjects I teach and continue to develop my knowledge of them, 3.3 I ensure the appropriate organisation of both the physical space and the digital environment in which learning takes place, 6.2 I work responsibly with information and digital tools, guide pupils towards democratic values and act in accordance with professional ethics
Students will acquire the skills to work with selected software tools so that these tools can effectively assist them both in their studies and in preparing practical outputs for their work placements. Students will thus demonstrate alignment with competence framework points 1.1.4 and 3.3.4
