CHARM-EU educational project
In its first educational project, CHARM-EU was creating learning experiences that, having mobility and inclusivity at their core, are based on the implementation of a transformative approach to program and curricula design combining the best of the different European traditions in structuring curriculum with a flexible, skill-oriented modular structure.
CHARM-EU was working to deliver an innovative, challenge-driven, student-centred, and self-directed teaching model that integrates research, teaching, innovation, and inquiry within and across disciplines, open to the world. This model envisages a European higher education campus utilizing the latest modern technology in the service of accessibility and internationalization.
Within this project, colleagues from the partner universities were working together in nine different work packages in fields such as curriculum design, teaching and learning, mobility and inclusion, and more. The alliance has brought together academic staff from different disciplines and universities within Knowledge Creating Teams, engaged external stakeholders, and developed a governance model with innovative administrative structures supported by the CHARM-EU core values.
The deep and successful collaboration between CHARM-EU partners resulted in designing several innovative tools, models, programmes, and practices, one of them being the Master’s in Global Challenges for Sustainability. The educational tools and materials co-created during the collaboration are accessible in the CHARM-EU Resources center.
