Each module is divided in 4 sections (Theoretical content, Examples and case studies, Self-assessment quiz and exercises and Additional materials and references). All modules are translated and will be available through the project.
What’s next
The next big step is the development of a Serious Game that will be developed on the MOOC and will assist in the education process of HEI stuff. By using a Serious Game specifically developed for this content, will ensure the best learning experience and results for the participants.
● the partners will integrate the knowledge-intensive modules of the MOOC with a Serious Game, i.e. the model of a game with learning purposes, aimed at making easier and more attractive the education process
● accessible the high-level technology features of blockchain. The Serious Game will be developed around a game scenario and a set of pre-defined rules and objectives
