Software, Platforms and Tools That Make a Difference

Ballons.png
Today, it is impossible to imagine our educational practice without digital tools and platforms. They help us to organize, facilitate the implementation during learning processes and open up new possibilities for learning. We have compiled here some that we consider particularly useful, also from the point of view of reliability and sensitivity to rights. Some very popular apps and tools will not be found in this list for this reason.



A matter of choice

What tools and apps we use says a lot about us. Democratic civic education in particular is called upon to make conscious choices based on critical thinking not only in its content but also in its tools. At Competendo we are convinced that Open Software, Open Educational Resources and applications that do not inappropriately and unconsentedly commercialize user data are better than others. This makes educational processes sometimes more complicated, but fairer and perhaps more creative. That is why solutions developed in this spirit can be found here in particular.
