Section outline

    • This is a self-paced MOOC: you can progress through the course at your own speed; you can complete course material and you can you can post on the forum at any time.

      The course is organised into 7 weeks; each week is devoted to a specific topic:

      • WEEK 1 - Universities disrupted
      • WEEK 2 - Models for opening up education
      • WEEK 3 - OER and MOOCs as innovation drivers
      • WEEK 4 - Academic libraries and learning spaces
      • WEEK 5 - Assessment and credits
      • WEEK 6 - Learning analytics
      • WEEK 7 - Overcoming academic resistance to ICT-enhanced teaching

      The MOOC, published in 2017, explores the new positioning of universities in the digital age along with some selected innovation fronts that entered the higher education discourse. We’ll learn about each topic through video interviews with visionaries and practitioners from diverse organisations. You may cherry-pick the content most beneficial to you, or you may follow the suggested learning path and engage in individual or collaborative activities, sharing your thoughts with the other MOOC participants in the course forum.

      Each week should take you 1 to 2 hours to complete.
