practice – often led by individuals or course teams»Some examples of large-scale institutional moves to
change delivery models› Flipped learning› Online modules or regular online sessions

Lesson Aims and Objectives• Aims• Making a difference with technology-enhanced learning and help meet
FELTAG targets
• Objectives• Demonstrate Office 365
• OneNote for Classrooms, Microsoft Forms, OneDrive• Moodle
• Glossary, Q&A Forum, Book Resource• Use Conditional activity and Restricting access and Completion tracking
• Explore a range of Web 2.0 Tools• Socrative, Padlet, Linoit, Blendspace, Kahoot…….
Office 365• Access your files and applications from virtually anywhere
• Office 365 is the same Office but powered by the cloud, you can get to your applications and files from virtually anywhere. Office documents can be created from any browser.
• Store, sync, and share files• Teachers and learners are able to store, sync, and share files simply.
• Some ways using Office 365 and embedding 21st Century Skills:• Group/Pair (Teamwork) Leaners and get them to Collaborate and Communicate
on their presentations• Improve their Information, Media and Technology Literacy• Develop their Life skills; Flexibility, Initiative, Social and Productivity Skills
Microsoft OneNote for Classrooms• Private Notebooks: In OneNote Class Notebook, student notebooks are
private notebooks that are shared between the teacher and each individual student. Teachers can access these notebooks at any time, but students cannot see each other's notebooks. • Content Libraries: The content library is a place where teachers can
handout course materials to students. For school administrators, the content library can be used for publishing policies and procedures or school calendar information.• Collaboration Space: And the collaboration space allows anyone in the
class to share, organize and collaborate. It is extremely flexible, and can be used for any group activities, meeting notes and shared initiatives.
Microsoft Forms• Quickly assess student progress and get feedback with easy-to-create
surveys, registrations, quizzes, and more.
Moodle• Use of Q & A Forums• Use of Glossaries• Use of Books• Use Conditional activity and Restricting access• Completion tracking
Moodle: Q & A Forum• Q and A Forum - Instead of initiating discussions participants pose a
question in the initial post of a discussion.• Students may reply with an answer, but they will not see the replies
of other Students to the question in that discussion until they have themselves replied to the same discussion.
Moodle: Glossary• The glossary activity module allows participants to create and
maintain a list of definitions, like a dictionary.• Glossary can be used in many ways. The entries can be searched or
browsed in different formats. A glossary can be a collaborative activity or be restricted to entries made by the teacher. Entries can be put in categories.• The auto-linking feature will highlight any word in the course which is
located in the glossary.
Moodle: Book resource• The Book module makes it easy to create multi-page resources with a
book-like format.• Books can be printed entirely or by chapter.• The book module allows you to have main chapters and sub chapters,
but it goes no deeper. In other words, sub chapters cannot have their own sub chapters, as the module is intended to be a simple resource for teachers and students.• The book module is not interactive. You can, however, link to choices,
forums etc., from within a book. Also, Flash movies and other multimedia may be included in a book
Restrict access• You can use the Restrict access settings to make students' access to
learning materials dependent on:• students' completion of a previous activity—use the Activity completion
settings to define what constitutes "completion"• the date (you can set from and until dates)• students' grades for a previous assignment, or for the entire course so far• a particular user profile field (e.g. Country, ID number, Surname—you can
restrict access to an individual user this way).• You can restrict access to individual resources or activities, and to entire
course home page sections.
Restrict access/Activity completion• Activity completion allows the teacher to set completion criteria in a
specific activity's settings. A check (tick) completion-manual-y.png appears against the activity when the student meets this criterion. The criterion might be viewing, receiving a certain score or a student marking it as complete.
Socrative• Socrative is a smart student response system• Socrative is a smart student response system that empowers teachers
by engaging their classrooms with a series of educational exercises and games. The apps are super simple and take seconds to login.• Please complete the Quiz created in Socrative. • Please click here to Start the quiz. You will need to enter room
number 331133.
BlendSpace• BlendSpace is an easy way to blend your classroom with digital
content. • Quotes about Blendspace:• "Visual Way to Present a Concept/Theme Through A Variety of Media" -
Cathie G.• "Blendspace is great for flipping, personalizing, and differentiating
instruction.• Lesson plans 2.0
Linoit• lino is a web-based sticky note service.• What would be possible usage of lino?
lino can be used for managing to-do, organizing ideas, exchanging ideas with friends or colleagues, and so on. lino has a feature that lets lino users and guests (with conditions) post pictures on a canvas via Email, and this feature may be used to create a shared picture gallery on a canvas with friends, family, and etc.
Padlet• Padlet is a virtual wall that allows people to express their thoughts on
a common topic easily. It works like an online sheet of paper where people can put any content (e.g. images, videos, documents, text) anywhere on the page, together with anyone, from any device.
Kahoot• Kahoot• Kahoot is a free game-based response system similar to Infuse Learning and
Socrative The teachers displays the questions of a quiz or survey on the screen and students can answer then using ALL kinds of devices.• It benefits instruction because it provides teachers with quick formative feedback as
they can check for understanding in real time. It is also highly engaging.• I have used it in order to relieve the tension and test anxiety before end of year
standardized testing and especially to get my students excited about intensive reading and about going over an extensive number of comprehension questions and passages. Kahoot can change the dynamic of your class because kids are fans of game-like environments. All I had to do was put the comprehension questions in Kahoot.
