The English MOOC “Applying Methods and Mindsets of Design Thinking in Higher Education Teaching” is aimed at educators, researchers, and learning professionals in higher education who want to apply the basic principles, methods, and mindset of Design Thinking in various educational settings.

This MOOC introduces Design Thinking as well as gives an overview of what is important when applying it in different educational settings. Participants are invited to learn more about Design Thinking at the beginning of the course, asked to follow its steps Empathize, Define, Ideate, and Iterate throughout each unit, and explore a variety of methods that can be used with their own learners at the end of this course.

In total, participants will spend a maximum of 25 hours (1ECTS) on this course building foundational knowledge on Design Thinking, exploring practical applications, and reflecting on its implementation in their own educational context. #designthinkinghe, #ustp, #eudres, #designthinking, #imoox
