A set of educational materials was developed and tested in the SUSPLUS project during the Absalon-based on-line course coordinated by the University of Copenhagen between May and July 2017. The e-learning phase of the project was an introductory phase for the following Intensive Study Programme (summer course), therefore the covered topics had an aim to give the students background knowledge and prepare them to the topics that were wider discussed during the summer course.
This e-learning materials included, among the others, (a) four introductory lectures followed by 10 subject lectures covering wide range of topics (see below), provided both as videos and background presentations, and (b) 6 short hotspots recorded with the representatives of a number of key organisations and movements as well as company founders supporting the organic and sustainable food systems in different regions of the world.
Steps taken towards development of the Output: O3-A1: Building an Absalon profile for the project (11.2016-1.2017); O3-A2: Preparation of educational materials (self-presentation videos, video lectures, ‘Hotspots’, and evaluation quizzes, questions for discussion) for the e-learning module (12.2016-4.2017); O3-A3: Placing study materials on the platform (4.2017), followed by testing them on the group of enrolled students (5-7.2017).
Topics of the video lectures included:
Introductory lectures (Meddiet and NND as sustainable diets; International frames and initiatives towards sustainable food systems and diets; Systems research methods)
Impact of farming methods on the environment & food quality (by Dr Średnicka-Tober)
