Understanding the role of technological platforms in schools

Abstract

This research paper evaluates how schools have embraced technological platforms as they shift from traditional learning methods to online learning methods, prior and during the covid-19 pandemic. Technological platforms are a suite of online tools that permit collaboration between teachers and students, as well as provide parents/carer visibility of their child’s school work in real-time. Such platforms permit equality, the creation of authentic learning material and collaboration that previously was inaccessible. Professional development and student boot camps were found to play a considerable role in all school stakeholders to use the technology.
