Webinar: Firki - British Council] Webinar on Using Technology for Teachers' Continuing Professional Development (CPD)

Using Technology for Teachers' Continuing Professional Development (CPD) This webinar will explore practical ways of engaging with technology for teachers’ CPD. It will specifically look at a range of digital platforms and/or tools teachers could use along with discussions about their advantages and disadvantages. Participants will be able to take away some hands-on ideas for using technology effectively for their CPD and potentially in their classrooms. Although the webinar is open to all and will be useful for everyone who attends, teachers who have some or no experience with using technology for their CPD will benefit the most.
