Competences for the future (Future Work 4S) – Green skills and environmental education
Year: 2024
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: This article describes an innovative Future Work 4S project and provides comprehensive feedback on a free Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) focused on environmental skills. Feedback was collected from two main target groups: educators (including university professors, teachers, and trainers) and student adult learners from Bulgaria, Greece, the Czech Republic, and Italy. The purpose of this survey is to provide an in-depth analysis of the feedback received on the Green Skills course and to highlight the main strengths identified by both educators and students. The findings reveal a high appreciation for the course’s interactive and experiential learning approach by both the students and the educators. Specifically, 93% of participants agreed that the course was interesting, engaging, relevant, accessible, and developmental. The course’s interactive exercises and gamification elements were particularly praised, enhancing learning and motivation. However, suggestions were made for including more practical examples and improving the uniformity of the text.
