The global impact of Covid-19 is multifaceted and is clearly manifested in almost all sectors, particularly the health, economic and education sectors. Since the announcement of the virus as a pandemic in March 2020, there have been a plethora of daily reports on its impact on the lives of millions across the world. Accordingly, every country’s primary concern has become to diminish the spread of the virus and alleviate its effects on the society in general, and the most vulnerable communities in particular.
In April 2020, a rapid assessment survey was conducted by the ILO-UNESCO-WBG on TVET and described the current state of TVET during COVID-19 period. In this report, current TVET trends highlighted and stated that the TVET sector should have 4E (E-Content, E-Learning, Education Technology and Entrepreneurship).
Technology has become an increasingly important part of students’ lives beyond school, and even within the classroom it can also help increase their understanding of complex concepts or encourage collaboration among peers. Because of these benefits, current educational practice suggests that teachers implement some form of technology in their classrooms – but many teachers face difficulties in doing so. Cost, access, and time often form considerable barriers to classroom implementation, but another obstacle is a lack of knowledge regarding how technology can best be used to benefit students across diverse subject matter.
In this context, Colombo Plan Staff College is planning to organize a webinar on “Use of Mentimeter for Learner Centered Learning''. This webinar will be dedicated to CPSC member countries TVET practitioners to build the capacity on how to use Mentimeter to teach and connect remotely with your students. Learn how to create a presentation, what question types are particularly useful for teachers and how to share it with your students. The other objective of the webinar is to share Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) and Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, and Redefinition (SAMR) Models to enhance teaching and learning process. The online collaborative tools help to engage learners through innovative presentations. After completion of this webinar, the participants are able to create and setup their own mentimeter presentation. Furthermore, understand the concept and importance of TPACK and SAMR models. The outcome will be aligned with different interpretations and expectations of digital innovation concept from the various stakeholders’ perspectives.
Focus

COVID-19 could be the mega maleficent of the 21st Century with almost all countries shutting TVET institutions to break the chain of transmission. However, the training and education of our youth has to continue because staying idle is contrary to the constitutional foundation of civil societies.
The outbreak of coronavirus disease was recorded rising in the world since December 2019. As a result some institutions started offering online education to their students, the majority of the students have not yet benefited from distance learning. Since youth are our human capital, we must use alternative way to offer education to them in order to continue their learning.
In April 2020, a rapid assessment survey conducted by the ILO-UNESCO-WBG on TVET and described the current state of TVET during COVID-19 period. In this report, current TVET trends highlighted and stated that the TVET sector should have 4E (E-Content, E-Learning, Education Technology and Entrepreneurship).
The report also highlighted the gaps in TVET during the current situation. The one of the gaps is to provide continuous training to TVET providers to facilitate the development and delivery of their online session. It is also emphasized that TVET has to empower TVET providers to develop their own e-Learning system.
In this context, Colombo Plan Staff College is planning to organize a webinar on “Develop Online Learning Management System for TVET Institute”. This webinar will be dedicated to CPSC member countries TVET practitioners to build the capacity on how to develop and setup a learning management system for a TVET institute by using Moodle. The main purpose of this webinar is to share simple steps to setup online course management, course administration and users profile etc. The online Moodle application is the best tool to build native learning management system without programming skills. After completion of this webinar, the participants are able to create and setup their own Moodle. The outcome will be aligned different interpretations and expectations of digital innovation concept from the various stakeholders’ perspectives.
Focus
This webinar session is designed to provide concept, setup, and administration of learning management system to the TVET institutions.
Objectives
To explain the importance of online resources for TVET institutions
To demonstrate how to setup a learning management system - Moodle
The Colombo Plan Staff College (CPSC), Philippines is an Inter-governmental International Organization for Human Resources Development. The whole world is nowadays facing an acute pressure due to COVID -19 issue. CPSC therefore wish to continue its efforts towards its commitment of quality education and training, and accordingly take this opportunity to deliver its training program through online mode viz. WEBINAR for the benefits of its stakeholders.
A webinar is an online seminar that turns a presentation into a real-time conversation from anywhere in the world. Webinars allow large groups of participants to engage in online discussions or training events and share audio, documents or slides – even when they’re not in the same place as the meeting host or in the same room where the event or presentation is taking place.
The development of new broadband communication services, convergence of telecommunication with computers and recent developments in the field of communication protocol have fostered challenges as well as offerings in the wide-ranging use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) to support the creation of dynamic and interactive teaching and learning environment. The world has witnessed a phenomenal growth in communication technology, computer network and information technology. Education around the world is experiencing major paradigm shifts in educational practices under the umbrella of ICT enabled learning environment.
Numerous technological innovations have inspired the development of new teaching and learning systems and contextualizing content. These add value to the learning environment and render smooth transition to a knowledge-based society. There is at least one generation gap between the Learners and the Teachers! It is also important to recognize that the 21st century learners are indeed very different from what we were as students. Today’s school-age generation knows more about technology than do their teachers. Young kids get bored if they are doing only one function at a time; they need multiple stimuli. For example, new generation of learners watch their computer screens, listen to music through headphones, and carry on conversation; all at the same time. Today’s learners have short attention spans, and have the attitude of take-it-all-at-once. They experience a technologically-saturated childhood. Unlike adults, they are not surprised by new technology -- they simply integrate it into their lives. They want and expect to collaborate with their teachers (and bosses), not take orders from them.
The growth of ICTs, the acknowledgement of their ease of use, the power and diversity of information transfer allow teachers and students to have access to a world beyond the classroom and create their own learner-centred environment for maximum learning outcome. Mastering ICT skills and their application to improve teaching and learning provide teachers the tools to perform their role as creators of pedagogical environments. Learners, on the other hand, take part in the sharing of needed learning space to acquire collaborative learning principles, learning independence and to enhance critical thinking, creative thinking and problem solving skills. Worldwide research has shown that ICT can lead to an improved student learning and better teaching methods. Application of ICT tools in teaching and learning process has changed the total scenario of teaching and learning process. Teaching and learning process s of this is not now limited within the classrooms boundaries. ICTs are making major differences in the teaching approaches and ways students are learning.
In this context, this webinar has been planned for the teachers of all CPSC member countries to discuss on ICT applications in Teaching and Learning Process.
