A series of resources that the student teacher must study in this session and a series of additional resources for further study.
A full paper and additional e-lessons on the topics of the session and additional interactive presentation of the materials, for the student teachers to study all the materials in a row.
A series of authentic, up to date and relevant activities with their accompanying materials, which deliver the intended learning outcomes of the session and are carried out face to face or E-learning with groups of student teachers.
Several types of questions to evaluate how much the student teachers have learned throughout the session (reading material, learning material and workshop).
