Goals of the MiniMOOC: Measure for Measure
This MiniMOOC is a real-life activity and the focus of this activity is the knowledge of relation between us and buildings around us, and how we can understand their size using our body at first guess.
- soft skill: critical and innovative thinking, collaboration, communication
- hard skill: learning
to solve real-world problems through hands-on learning activities and creative
design. Using of
materials and tools to experiment, explore and collect data
Each miniMOOC is developed on the same methodology, including the parts Engage, Explore, Explain, Extend, Evaluate. You can browse all miniMOOCs with guest account, however if you want to mark the checked resources (which you explored, which still need to be explored), to post something in Forum, to provide us Feedback or to do Moodle tests - you need to self-create an account by selecting login and creating an account with your Gmail (or other) acount.
Please self-create an account if you want to post something - we would appreciate any comments of suggestions or questions (just note that project ended in August 2022 and it may take time for us to respond).
