THE ROLE OF NANO-LEARNING IN DEVELOPING DIGITAL COMPETENCE AMONG FUTURE ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHERS
Abstract
This study investigates how nano-learning, a microlearning strategy involving short, focused learning units, contributes to developing digital competence among pre-service English language teachers. Given the growing integration of technology in educational environments, equipping future educators with digital skills is essential. This research explores the application of nano-learning in teacher training programs and its effectiveness in enhancing digital literacy, pedagogical digital competence, and overall teaching efficacy in digitally mediated classrooms.
