Welcome to the

DESTINe MOOC!

Now that you are here, you are probably wondering what is DESTINE? And what is a MOOC?

What is DESTINE?

DESTINE (standing for DivErSity and Tolerance IN E-Environment) was established to foster online vocational training that emphasizes diversity, inclusion, and tolerance.

The project aims to equip all professionals and students with the essential tools to effectively adjust to an e-learning approach. DESTINE specifically prioritizes creating a learning environment that accommodates the needs of vocational training students. This MOOC platform presents this learning environment for students and professionals in vocational education and training.

What is a MOOC?

Now, what is a MOOC? MOOC stands for Massive Open Online Course; by this we mean that the courses and educational materials presented on this platform are delivered online and accessible to everyone. On a MOOC you will typically find video resources, tip-sheets, reading materials, assessments and quizzes and a discussion forum. And the DESTINE MOOC is no exception – only that here you will also find handbooks for students with classroom-based activities included for each module available on the MOOC. To find out more about what we have in store for you on our MOOC, check out the individual links to our training materials that are presented throughout the platform.

Diversity and Tolerance e-Modules

These 7 e-modules are presented as a virtual classroom to upskill and empower vocational education professions – teachers, trainers, educators, other key-actors – to promote diversity, tolerance and therefore inclusiveness within an online and distance learning environment. We have developed 7 e-modules on the following topics.

At the end of each e-module, you will be presented with a quiz which you can complete to test your knowledge! You can also share these quizzes with your students to test their knowledge of these topics, before introducing the blended learning activities in your classroom, to further develop your students’ knowledge and competences related to diversity and tolerance.
