Enhancing the Competence of Academy Professors in the Field of Distance Education

The importance of distance education in the process of professional retraining and the improvement of staff qualifications is increasing day by day. In particular, implementing blended and part-time learning formats is considered one of the most effective ways for educational institutions. Additionally, the integration of modern technologies and effective tools into the educational process is a key priority for the Academy.

In this regard, a special seminar-training aimed at enhancing the capabilities of Academy professors in developing blended and distance courses was organized. This seminar served as an essential platform for the development of professors' knowledge and skills related to distance education.

During the seminar-training, the unique features of developing electronic learning resources for distance and blended courses with the help of artificial intelligence (ChatGPT, Grammarly, Gamma) were discussed. Moreover, the use of modern software such as Quizizz, Canva, Duolingo, Animaker, and Edmodo for creating visual micro-content was reviewed.

This seminar-training contributed to improving the skills of Academy professors in developing modern electronic learning resources for distance and blended courses.
