Understanding the Role of Technological Platforms in Schools
Educational Media International, v58 n4 p355-373 2021
This research paper evaluates how schools have embraced technological platforms as they shift from traditional learning methods to online learning methods, prior and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Technological platforms are a suite of online tools that permit collaboration between teachers and students, as well as provide parents/carer visibility of their child's school work in real-time. Such platforms permit equality, the creation of authentic learning material and collaboration that previously was inaccessible. Professional development and student boot camps were found to play a considerable role in all school stakeholders to use the technology.
