In this podcast we hear from members sharing their journeys to realising Education 4.0.

This week we are joined by Seima Mahmood who is an ESOL lecturer at Bradford College. Over the course of lockdown, Seima and her ESOL students have built an online portal which showcases their experience during the pandemic, providing a space for them to share pictures, blogs, recipes and more. The result is a fantastic online space for students, providing them with an engaging social space during lockdown and encouraging them to use and develop their digital skills.

Alongside this, Seima covers what tools have helped her and her students most during this time, how they have overcome hurdles during the transition to digital learning, and how to cope as a teacher during ‘the new normal’.
