1st Edition of the Sustainability, SDGs and developmental education” course

The online course is aimed at university students from all faculties and schools who are interested in the subject. It will be held online with 4 pre-recorded modules. Each of the 4 modules will show a dialogue between two renowned speakers in the area of knowledge of the course. The course will include videos with talks from various speakers, presentations and support videos. During the recording a graphic designer will make sketches that help with incorporating the key knowledge and concepts dealt with for the purposes of creating a mental scheme for helping students to set this knowledge in its cognitive structure.

Assessment: A final report must be handed in on 7 July 2023, by the latest.The report will consist of drafting the key ideas that students have included regarding each of the 4 dialogues. The presentation of this report is crucial for accessing the academic recognition of 1 credit (bachelor's-degree students at the UdG) or in the certificate of achievement of 25 hours of education (dual bachelor’s-degree and master’s-degree students at the UdG or other universities in Spanish or abroad).

Recognition of the course: once the period for doing the course has ended, the teaching staff will proceed to assess the reports received and decide whether they can obtain the recognition of 1 credit or 25 hours of education, which will be communicated to all those who have submitted their work.

Recognition of 1 credit for bachelor's-degree students at the UdG will be noted in their academic records a few days after the assessment session. All other students will receive their certificate of 25 hours of education by email.
