Duration and workload

Start and end date: open-ended, you can take this course (or any section) at your own pace

Duration: self-paced

Workload: 8-10 hours

This course is based on a version that ran from Monday, 27 January 2025, to Wednesday, 12 February 2025. The original course provided participants with opportunities to interact during a specific active timeframe of 2.5 weeks, exchange ideas and engage in a peer assessment. However, we recognise that not everyone was able to attend during the scheduled timeline.

To make the course accessible to a wider audience, we’ve developed this self-paced format. This version allows you to explore the content and complete the activities at your own pace, whenever it suits you best.

What the self-study format means:

Flexible schedule: You decide when and how to engage with the course materials. There are no deadlines, live sessions, or required meeting times.
Independent learning: While the original course included discussions and peer reviews taking place in certain days and weeks, this format empowers you to work independently, using the same materials and guidance provided during the initial version. Please note that discussions in the forums and contributions on Padlets will not be moderated, allowing for a fully self-directed learning experience.
Self-assessment: To replicate some of the reflective benefits of peer feedback, you will be encouraged to evaluate your own work using the provided assessment criteria.
