On December 1st, ETUG will launch the first B.C. 12 Apps of Christmas for teaching and learning. Similar to the successful U.K. event, participants will explore a new app a day for 12 days. Each day will introduce you to an app, where to get it, how to use it, and provide some ideas of how it might be used for teaching and learning. A challenge activity will be highlighted and participants are encouraged to share their results and reflect on any additional ideas of how to use it in the future through their blogs and on social media, using the #12appsBC hashtag.
The focus will be on:
- pedagogical value of the apps/tools but also includes ones that are useful for those helping others to learn or for anyone learning themselves (i.e., librarians, researchers)
- experiential and connected learning
Each participant who completes the challenge will have their name entered in a draw for a prize.
From December 1-16, it’s all happening at 12appsforchristmas.ca. Join us! Sign-up for notices for more information on this.
