Educational concept and design
The EBmooc 2023 is designed as an xMOOC. This means, that the course has a clear structure, materials (videos, texts) are provided for self-study. During the guided period in 2023 there will also be various possibilities to exchange with each other and with the lecturers (discussion forum, webinars). Exclusive individual support cannot be provided.
Each unit of the course consists of two introductory videos, additional working material, specific exercises and a short quiz at the end of the unit to assess your knowledge and understanding of concepts.
The contents are best designed to meet adult educators’ needs in teaching, training and educational management.
