Organisation

The course itself is a Blended learning course and contains a distance learning preparation phase and an onsite teaching.

Preparation Phase

The preparation work will be done using the eLearning platforms of the EBI. There, the course materials are provided and most of the theoretical background knowledge is taught. The participants will be able to access them by entering their personal password. They should start thematic discussions in the web forum of the platform (with the help of a tutor). All participants will receive documents with basic definitions and descriptions for doing their preparation work.

In the first phase there are eTivities to solve and developed material is uploaded to a first assessment.

Classroom Teaching (Face to Face)

During the onsite lessons the participants work on the other topics, get assisted by tutors and finish the working program. The onsite teaching takes place in Rome at the DigiLab in modern computer labs. The course is finished by an assessment.
