"The way students learn changes when they have access to digital tools. The Digital Classroom demonstrates that using technology to enhance students' learning is not dependent on a specific learning management system or software - it is about changing the pedagogy with the help of an arsenal of useful tools and methods. This practical book introduces easy to use methods to all teachers in digital classrooms with the intention to make it simple, accessible and achievable for everyone. It is not only about the tools, and the how and why, but also about changing the pedagogy making the learning more relevant to the students.
