摘要

The rapid evolution of digital technologies and diverse student needs pose significant challenges for higher education teachers, who often lack time to update teaching materials. This study explores the potential of a webseries as an efficient knowledge-sharing tool tailored to university educators. Using a Developmental Research Methodology, a proof of concept comprising five episodes was developed. These episodes, conceived using a digital storytelling approach, address the topics of content accessibility and mobile learning, aiming to enhance teachers’ skills and better engage the new generation of students. Initial results demonstrate that higher education teachers value the webseries’ engaging format, which fosters skill development while accommodating busy schedules. This approach offers a scalable and adaptable solution for continuous professional development in higher education.
