Self-reflection to support teachers’ professional learning

 • Teachers as learning designers
 • Collaborative learning
 • Reflective learning

SELFIE for Teachers is not designed to assess or rank teachers’ performance but to
empower them to reflect on how they use technology.
Based on their self-reflection results, teachers can design their learning pathways towards
the development of their digital competence.​

A2: I have tried using digital technologies to support and/or enhance my teaching practice (e.g. software programs and
suites, mobile apps and tools, online and cloud-based resources, interactive whiteboards).
B1: I use various digital technologies that can support innovative pedagogical approaches, enhancing my students'
active involvement in their learning (e.g. inquiry based learning, project based learning, game based learning, peer and
self-assessment, student coaches).                Helptext      The development of learning experiences and environments to promote the acquisition
                                                                of specific learning aims for a target group (both the process and the outcome)
B2: I select and employ digital technologies in my learning designs affordances, so as to meet teaching and learning
aims (e.g. simulations, digital games, online interactive tools, collaborative environments).
C1: Together with my students, I reflect on and redesign the use of digital technologies to enhance teaching practices
and innovative learning approaches (e.g. students as coaches, use of emerging technologies, modelling and advice,
lesson-study).
C2: I initiate and promote the design and sharing of innovative teaching and learning practices with digital technologies
in my school and its wider community (e.g. online workshops, learning design with the use of digital technologies, micro-
teaching and co-teaching, reflective discussions on the effectiveness of the use of digital technologies).

SLIDO    #S4T2021

1.   How can S4T support educators’ professional learning?
     What kind of opportunities and challenges do you
     anticipate in your own context?
2.   Some new items were added in S4T (e.g. Distance and
     blended learning, Emerging technologies,
     Computational thinking). What kind of skills do you
     see under these new items?
3.   What would you like to see in the S4T ecosystem?
     What should it consist of?
