Creating Digital Resources
Competent Digital Educators modify and build on existing openly-licensed resources and other resources where this is permitted. They create or co-create new digital educational resources. They consider the specific learning objective, context, pedagogical approach, and learner group, when designing digital resources and planning their use.
Typical activities
They modify and edit existing digital resources, where this is permitted.
They combine and mix existing digital resources or parts thereof, where this is permitted.
They create new digital educational resources.
They jointly create with others digital educational resources.
They consider the specific learning objective, context, pedagogical approach, and learner group, when adapting or creating digital learning resources.
They understand different licences attributed to digital resources and the implications for their re-use.
When mastering this competence by doing the work in the lab, you should be able to say:
I use office software to design and modify e.g. worksheets and quizzes. I create digital presentations for instructional purposes.
When I create digital resources (e.g. presentations), I integrate some animations, links, multimedia or interactive elements.
I make some basic modifications to the digital learning resources I use to fit them to the learning context, e.g. editing or deleting parts, adapting the general settings.
I address a specific learning objective when selecting, modifying, combining and creating digital learning resources.
I integrate a range of interactive elements and games into my self-created instructional resources.
I modify and combine existing resources to create learning activities that are tailored to a concrete learning context and objective, and to the characteristics of the learner group. I understand different licenses attributed to digital resources and know the permissions granted to me as regards modifying resources.
In the lab we will also:
Create and modify complex and interactive digital learning activities, e.g. interactive worksheets, online assessments, online collaborative learning activities (e.g. wikis, blogs), games, apps, visualisations.
Co-create learning resources with colleagues.
