Welcome to Week 1

Introduction to Week 1

Week 1 educators are welcoming you to the first week of the course – in this video they are talking about this week’s learning.

At this point in the course, we would like to ask you about your expectations of this course are – reflect on those and if you like, share them with your fellow learners using the comment area below.

This week is an introduction to the project-based course – where you will be working on your own course design, receive feedback from other learners and review their work too.

Even though this is the very start of the course, please start planning and thinking about what you want to design – do you have your own current project you want to work on? Alternatively, think about an idea to work on as practice.

We are using lots of references and resources in this course. Some are linked in the steps they are relevant to, and many are compiled at the end of the course in the References and Resources step. Do read as much as time and interest allow you, working at your own pace.
