Founder of Charlie's Lessons shares three key questions to remember when choosing technology for your teaching context.
KEY TALKING POINTS
Core Set of Tools
Charlie emphasises the significance of technology in his daily routine, relying heavily on the Google suite of apps for communication and organisation. He highlights the role of technology in facilitating communication with teachers, students, and school administrators.
Integration of AI (Artificial Intelligence)
The conversation shifts to the integration of AI in educational settings, with Charlie acknowledging its potential in catering to students' specific needs. However, he underscores the importance of testing and refining AI-generated materials to ensure their suitability for classroom use.
Tips for Choosing Technology
Charlie offers practical advice for educators navigating the vast array of available technologies, focusing on factors such as cost-effectiveness, ease of use, and unique functionalities. He emphasises the need to assess whether a particular technology addresses specific teaching challenges or merely adds to the existing toolkit.
ABOUT
Charlie, originally from Bath, ventured into TEFL in Thailand before teaching in South Korea. Despite intending to go to Japan, he settled for South Korea for a year in Busan. With 3 years of experience, he pursued a CELTA course at Bath College, enabling him to teach in Europe. Arriving in Cadiz, Spain in 2012, he later moved to Seville before returning to Cadiz as Director of Studies of Foreign Languages at CLIC IH Cadiz. With a DELTA qualification, he shares teaching experiences and educational technology expertise through his website and YouTube channel, injecting humour into his endeavours.
