Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

As a result of the pandemic, we have had to implement different strategies to guarantee that our students learn in digital, hybrid, and blended environments.

We develop different strategies to ensure that in different classes, students can use technology appropriately and ensure that it is used for the development of projects and learning specific to each subject.

Implementation of this project was also created by the great demand for updating the use of different applications, LMS, and programs for both teachers and students, and often, we do not have enough time to teach a class or receive technology training.

During the exhibition we will show you various strategies that have been implemented to train teachers and students with informative capsules, tutorial videos, online courses, and hybrid synchronous sessions.
