Meet Maria, an early years educator.

She knows that digital tools and technologies could help her do her work,

but she wonders if she is using them to their full potential.

Maria is curious to learn more about how digital tools

can help her to plan and carry out her activities.

Monitor and document children's progress and share this with families

and communicate with colleagues and other early years professionals.

She wants to be sure that she is using digital technologies in a safe

and responsible way, and given the age of the children in her care,

she wants to make sure she understands privacy and data

protection rules and guidance.

This is where SELFIEforTEACHERS comes in.

SELFIEforTEACHERS is a free self-reflection tool

to help early years educators like Maria think critically about how

they use technology in their work.

It also helps them identifying areas where they can improve further.

The self-assessment takes about 25 minutes to complete.

After this, educators get a personalised feedback report

with guidance and tips on how to level up.

SELFIEforTEACHERS can also be used by a group of educators,

allowing colleagues and other professionals to discuss

results, experiences and plan training opportunities together.

By using the tool, early years educators

like Maria can improve their skills on an ongoing basis.

They can also learn more about supporting parents and families

on using technologies in safe and responsible ways.

Maria is now ready to take the next step on her

professional development journey with SELFIEforTEACHERS.

She has learnt more about her digital competence and knows where

to focus to further improve her skills within and beyond her classroom.
