Are you interested in developing a micro-credential or free online course using innovative educational approaches?
Join CHARM-EU’s Micro-credentials Best Practice Event, where we will showcase micro-credentials and free online courses (MOOCs) designed around the CHARM-EU Educational Principles. This one-hour online session brings together experienced educators and developers from across our alliance to share practical insights, lessons learned, and tips you can apply to your own courses.
Through short, dynamic lightning talks, you will hear how these principles are embedded in practice and explore opportunities for collaboration and networking.
In this session we will be focusing on the CHARM-EU educational principles:
- Sustainability
- Challenge-Based Learning
- Transdisciplinarity
The best practices being showcased include:
- Practical Frameworks for Innovation Shay Butler from Trinity College Dublin
- Innovative Teaching in Inter-institutional Hybrid Classrooms Anna Granberg from Ă…bo Akademi University, in collaboration with Trinity College Dublin, Utrecht University and University of WĂĽrzburg
- Transformational Leadership in Inter-institutional higher Education Annet van der Riet from Utrecht University, in collaboration with CHARM-EU partners
- Assessment & Management of Frailty in Ageing Adults Michelle Kearns from Trinity College Dublin
- Natural Products: Harnessing Nature’s Resources for a Better World Maria Pigott from Trinity College Dublin
What You’ll Gain
- First-hand examples of how CHARM-EU principles are embedded in micro-credential and open online course design
- Practical guidance on development, collaboration, stakeholder engagement, assessment, and pedagogy
- Space for open dialogue on challenges and opportunities to build new collaborations
Join us to connect, learn, and co-create the future of micro-credentials in CHARM-EU.
