A practical professional development workshop introducing ten accessible strategies for integrating digital and AI tools into adult migrant language and integration classes.<\/p>\n

Learning Objectives<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Participants (educators) will be able to:<\/li>\n
  • Identify at least three digital or AI tools relevant to their teaching context.<\/li>\n
  • Design a simple activity using one of the ten strategies introduced.<\/li>\n
  • Reflect on how digital tools can support inclusion and learner autonomy.<\/li>\n
  • Plan one concrete action to implement in their next class.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Projector or large screen<\/p>\n

    Devices with internet access for all participants<\/p>\n

    Printed or digital handout of the 10 Ways summary<\/p>\n

    Preparation<\/h2>\n
      \n
    • Prepare the "10 Easy Ways" handout summarising the ten strategies.<\/li>\n
    • Set up a shared Padlet or Google Doc for the Tool Ideas Bank.<\/li>\n
    • Test all tools to be demonstrated (e.g. ChatGPT, Canva, voice recorder apps).<\/li>\n
    • Prepare 2-3 live demonstration examples relevant to the participants' teaching contexts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Implementation Steps<\/h2>\n
        \n
      • Introduction (10 min): Open with a quick poll or show of hands - "Which digital tools do you already use?" Normalise starting small.<\/li>\n
      • Overview of 10 Ways (20 min): Walk through the ten strategies with brief examples. Focus on accessibility and low-barrier entry points.<\/li>\n
      • Live Demo (20 min): Demonstrate 2-3 strategies live. Show how to use AI to simplify a text, generate a quiz, or create a vocabulary activity.<\/li>\n
      • Pair Activity (5 min): Participants find one short text online and draft a prompt for a different language level.<\/li>\n
      • Planning & Application (20 min): Each participant chooses one strategy and completes a simple planning template: Which tool? For which learner group? What is the task? What is the one-sentence instruction for learners?<\/li>\n
      • Q&A, Sharing & Closing (10 min): Participants post their planned activity to the Tool Ideas Bank. Distribute the handout. Closing prompt: "Commit to trying just one thing."<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Differentiation & Inclusion<\/h2>\n
          \n
        • For less tech-confident educators: Stress that starting with just one tool is a success. Focus on the simplest strategies.<\/li>\n
        • For more tech-confident educators: Challenge them to explore how tools can be used by learners actively.<\/li>\n
        • Provide clear, written instructions for all demonstrated prompts so educators can replicate them without memorising steps.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Assessment & Feedback<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n
          Criterion<\/th>\nExcellent<\/th>\nGood<\/th>\nNeeds Work<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n
          Engagement in workshop<\/td>\nActively participates in all activities and discussions<\/td>\nParticipates in most activities with some prompting<\/td>\nMinimal participation or disengaged<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
          Quality of planned activity<\/td>\nPlan is clear, specific, and immediately implementable<\/td>\nPlan is mostly clear with minor gaps<\/td>\nPlan is vague or not yet actionable<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
          Reflection on digital tools<\/td>\nDemonstrates critical awareness of tool benefits and limitations<\/td>\nShows some awareness with support from facilitator<\/td>\nLimited reflection on tool use in teaching context<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

          Extensions \/ Follow-Ups<\/h2>\n
            \n
          • Follow-up session one month later: participants share what worked and what they learned.<\/li>\n
          • Create a shared resource bank of tried-and-tested AI activities for the team.<\/li>\n
          • Invite participants to lead a short demo of their chosen tool for colleagues.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
