Helping Teachers Create Digital Learning Content

A new €400,000 European project will help teachers create digital learning content for use in the classroom. The project is a collaboration between Learnovate, a global research and innovation centre in the future of work and learning in Trinity College Dublin (TCD), and the TCD School of Education.

TD3C (Teacher Digital Content Creation Competencies) is co-funded by Erasmus+, the EU and Léargas, the Irish national agency managing programmes in youth work, education, and training.

The use of digital devices in the classroom has become increasingly common in recent times. However, there has not been significant attention to-date on teachers as creators of their own digital educational content. This is despite teachers being required to play a bigger role in providing accessible digital learning content for students, and content creation for learning becoming a priority for the European Commission under the EU Digital Education Plan.
