• unpacks different ideas about pedagogy and how these inform digital technology use
• introduces the Funnels of Influence model to help you understand why you think and do the things that you do
• provides practical self-audit tools that can be used individually and across teams to clearly identify pedagogical priorities
• provides structured audit and review tools to ensure that strategies are based on sound research and result in practical, impactful, actions
• provides teachers with practical guidance to ensure that precision planning and a clear focus on impact lead to lasting and meaningful teaching and learning experiences for all learners
