Project Description
The IDEAL Futures Teacher Academy aims to provide a range of professional development activities and a transformative dialogue hub with a view to leading innovative practices in digital education. The project will enable pre-service teachers and in-service teachers in the early years, primary, and post primary sectors to engage in dialogue with policy makers, other educational leaders and the digital tech sector.
It provides an integrated approach viewing digital learning as an ecosystem. It also demonstrates how such elements can be considered in a holistic, inclusive manner to meet the needs of the whole school community, to foster an open approach to digital pedagogical leadership.
