Using WhatsApp In My Professional Practice

I've been working towards my Digital Literacy Practitioner qualification for the past few months and it has given me the opportunity to try out so many new tools and techniques. Being a lover of all things techy, this qualification has been a real pleasure to complete.

I have come up with lots of fantastic ideas for use in my professional practice and I wanted to share a PowToon that I made, which details the effectiveness of WhatsApp as a tool for use with learners:

As the video shows, WhatsApp really is an amazing tool to use with learners when working inside and outside the classroom. You can embed WhatsApp activities in any subject area, helping learners to develop their digital skills in context. It is a wonderful tool to use for collaboration and brings out learners' creativity.

Have you tried using it with your learners/in your workplace? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
