Course Procedure

The MOOC consists of 6 units that are available to everyone from the start. Each unit includes a content video, materials for self-editing, activities and a quiz for self-assessment.

We recommend that you design your own e-learning project during the course and, using the reflection questions, take into account the fundamental aspects of production. This will help you to ensure, step by step, a high-quality e-learning experience for your learners.

The idea was born after a guest lecture by the scientific expert for digital teaching Dr. Christopher Könitz in the course of the "Digital Learning Teatime" format at FHWien der WKW and finally resulted in a cooperation for this basic course.

Christopher Könitz is an expert in the sustainable establishment of e-learning in educational organizations. With over 15 years of experience in the field of digital learning, he combines technology, didactics, design and resources to create innovative educational programs. He works full-time at Wismar University of Applied Sciences, where he puts his expertise into practice. His life motto "Educate freedom" is also reflected on his YouTube channel "UpBilden". On this channel, he inspires people to discover and use their own educational opportunities, especially in times of growing social and digital inequalities (www.koenitz.net).
