ETF Webinars on Video Pedagogy June 12 and June 18

As part of its work to support improvements in teaching and learning and digital and on-line learning, The European Training Foundation has been investigating the potential of digital video to support Vocational Education and Teacher Professional Development.  The ETF has commissioned research into practice and impact and it has produced some resources to support practitioners - a directory of resources, handbooks and case studies.

The ETF has now published a Research Report, two practical manuals and a Directory of Resources on a platform dedicated to Video Pedagogy.

In order to provide an introduction to this work, the ETF will offer two webinars, led by experts in video pedagogy.  The first webinar will focus on the use of video in teacher education and professional development (June 12) whilst the second (June 18) will focus on the use of video in vocational teaching and learning.
