What is a MOOC Fellowship?

At iMooX.at, we want to actively promote and support the use of our openly licensed and free MOOCs in teaching. We would like to find out more about who is using our MOOCs in their teaching and how they are being used.

Fellows are teachers who use one or more MOOCs from iMooX.at – or parts of them – in a didactically effective way in their teaching, trainings or coaching, and who share this use with the iMooX team.

Are you a teacher using MOOCs from iMooX.at in your teaching? Become an iMooX Fellow now!

Prerequisite: How do you become an iMooX Fellow?

To become an iMooX Fellow, please use the form linked below to let us know which MOOC from iMooX you would like to use in your own teaching and some information about the context of your teaching.

You can become a Fellow regardless of which educational institution you teach at, or the format of your course. The only requirement is that you are not the creator of the MOOC you would like to use , and that you incorporate it in your teaching between September and July of the following year.

The iMooX Fellowships are designed as non-financial support in the spirit of open educational resources: The iMooX team will support and advise you, where necessary, on the didactic and technical aspects of using MOOCs in your teaching.
