Goals

The main objective of this course is to provide teachers with the knowledge, strategies and resources necessary to design innovative learning experiences using mobile devices, digital content, active methodologies and gamification techniques, integrating technology in a pedagogical, creative, inclusive and safe way.

Throughout the training, students will learn to:

- Understand the fundamentals of Mobile Learning and differentiate its characteristics with respect to e-learning and b-learning.
- Analyze the educational possibilities of mobile devices and their impact on new teaching and learning contexts.
- Know the main standards, technologies, operating systems and tools linked to mobile learning.
- Plan educational experiences based on mobile devices based on connectivity, accessibility, inclusion and security criteria.
- Identify applications and digital tools suitable for different stages, subjects and educational situations.
- Apply the principles of Thinking Based Learning (TBL) to encourage critical thinking and design content that promotes more reflective learning.
- Design, create, publish and communicate digital and audiovisual content adapted to mobile devices.
- Use multimedia and interactive resources to encourage more active participation of students.
- Integrate Project Based Learning (PBL) with mobile technologies, expanding learning possibilities inside and outside the classroom.
- Design content and activities following the principles of the Flipped Classroom methodology.
- Create and edit videos and other digital materials intended for flipped classroom experiences.

What prepares you

This course prepares you to transform mobile devices and digital tools into authentic learning resources, going from using technology only as support to integrating it in a planned way into your teaching strategies.

You will learn to design and create more visual, interactive and attractive digital content, adapting it to the needs of students and different educational situations. You will be able to incorporate Mobile Learning into your classes, select appropriate applications and resources and propose activities that allow learning both inside and outside the classroom.

The training will also allow you to apply methodologies such as Thinking Based Learning, Project-Based Learning and Flipped Classroom, creating audiovisual materials and experiences in which students adopt a more active role in their own learning.

In addition, you will be prepared to use gamification as a teaching strategy, designing challenges, dynamics and learning experiences capable of increasing motivation, promoting participation and working on emotions in a different way.

Finally, you will learn about the educational possibilities of technologies such as QR codes, augmented reality, 3D printing and virtual environments, expanding your resources to create innovative educational experiences connected to current digital reality.

Who is it addressed

This course is especially aimed at teachers of Early Childhood Education, Primary, Secondary, Baccalaureate, Vocational Training and other teachings who want to update their digital skills and discover new ways of creating content and developing educational experiences supported by technology.

It is also especially interesting for teachers who want to incorporate Mobile Learning, Flipped Classroom, PBL, Thinking Based Learning and gamification into their teaching practice, as well as for those looking for new strategies to increase the motivation, participation and autonomy of their students.

It is not necessary to have advanced technological knowledge, since the course progressively addresses both the pedagogical foundations and their main possibilities of educational application.
