New courses: Biodiversity.now and Una Europa Micro-Credential in Sustainability

Last Friday October 7th we launched Una Europa Micro-Credential in Sustainability, in collaboration with Una Europa European Universities alliance, Climate University and Biodiversity education Network Finland.

Una Europa Micro-Credential in Sustainability is a 10-cr module on sustainability, aimed for continuous learners. However, also higher education students can take it as part of their degree. Credits are awarded by the University of Helsinki, on behalf of the Una Europa alliance.

The 10-cr micro-credential consists of five Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs): Introduction to sustainability, 3 cr (built on Climate University course Sustainable.now), Climate.now, 2 cr (built on CU course), Biodiversity.now, 2 cr (the new Climate University course!), Political Economy of Sustainability, 2 cr (provided by Jagellonian University, Poland) and Sustainability and the Arts, 1 cr (provided by the University of Bologna, Italy).

The Biodiversity.now course is developed in collaboration between the Biodiversity education network, Climate University and Una Europa. The production of the course was funded by the Ministry of Education and Culture, Finnish Innovation Fund Sitra Una Europa and Nordplus. The 2 ECTS Biodiversity.now course offers an easy way for students to learn more about the ongoing biodiversity crisis and solutions for it. The intention of the course is to appeal for a wide variety of learners, regardless of their field of study, and therefore the course does not require previous knowledge on biodiversity or biology. The course consists of six modules: Basic knowledge, Biodiversity crisis, Threats and consequences, Biodiversity conservation, Biodiversity here, now and in the future and Reflection. 

The learning goals of the course are for the students to be able to recognize reasons for the ongoing biodiversity crisis and its consequences for the human society and for their personal life, to explore their own connection to nature and the values they assign to it, to recognize a variety of approaches and tools for protecting of biodiversity, increasing of biodiversity and promoting the sustainable use of biodiversity. The last learning goal ensures that students are able to apply the issues to their own field of studies or work and learn how to be part of the solution. 

The overreaching aim is to make students familiar with the biodiversity crisis, its drivers and consequences, and recognize their own leverage points when it comes to halting the biodiversity crisis.

Help, Climate Change! – exhibition by Climate.now students open for public at Helsinki Observatory

Helsinki Observatory

The new temporary mini-exhibition at Helsinki Observatory is all about the changing climate of our home planet. The exhibition provides an approachable introduction to climate history and the carbon cycle, and lets you try your hand at balancing carbon sinks with emissions. The exhibition has been created in cooperation with students of the University of Helsinki Climate.now course in Autumn 2021. During the course, the students designed 20 exhibition items in groups as project work. Some of the items were selected in collaboration with the Observatory staff to be implemented in the historical obseratory premises.

Even though the exhibition is both informative and entertaining, it does not stop there. Contrasting with the historical milieu of the old observatory, it calls you to imagine your own future climate utopias and save the things you value most. Surrounded both by nature and some of the finest achievements of humankind, the environment of the exhibition reminds you of all the things in this world that are worth fighting for.

Exhibition is open for public from 27.5.2022 onwards, Thu at 12 – 20, Fri-Sat at 12 – 16. Address: Kopernikuksentie 1, Helsinki. Entrance fee: 8/6/4 EUR, for free with the Museum card. www.observatorio.fi

Ilmastowebinaari ja tutustumiskurssi lukiolaisille

Viime vuonna ensimmäistä kertaa järjestetty Ilmasto.nyt -tutustumiskurssi on saapumassa jälleen! Kurssi on tiivistetty versio jo monena vuonna järjestetystä Ilmasto.nyt (Climate.now) -kurssista. Kurssi alkaa kaikille avoimella Nuorten Ilmastowebinaarilla, jossa tällä kertaa asiantuntijat käsittelevästi arktisia olosuhteita ja ilmastonmuutoksen vaikutusta pohjoisessa. Niin opiskelijat kuin opettajatkin ovat tervetulleita sekä kuuntelemaan maksutonta webinaaria että osallistumaan kurssille.

 

Ilmasto.nyt tutustumiskurssi (2 op, kurssikoodi FYS4027 /Helsingin yliopisto)

Ilmasto.nyt -tutustumiskurssi järjestetään 3.5.–14.6.2022 Digicampus-kurssialustalla. Kurssi toimii pohjustuksena ilmastonmuutoksen tärkeille teemoille. Kurssin materiaali on itseopiskeltavaa, ja soveltuu sekä lukiolaisille että kandidaatin tutkintoaan suorittaville opiskelijoille. Kurssilla järjestetään tiistaisin klo 16–17 yhteinen Zoom-sessio, joissa uppoudutaan tarkemmin kurssin teemoihin ja joissa opiskelijoilla on mahdollisuus esittää kysymyksiä.

Kurssin kolme keskeistä teemaa ovat

  • ilmastonmuutoksen luonnontieteelliset perusteet
    (esimerkiksi kasvihuoneilmiö, hiilenkierto, ilmastomallit)
  • ilmastonmuutoksen hillintä
    (esimerkiksi hiilineutraali energia ja uusiutuvan energian tuotanto, hiilijalanjälki, ilmastopolitiikka)
  • ilmastonmuutoksen vaikutukset ja niihin sopeutuminen
    (esimerkiksi ekosysteemipalvelut, palauteilmiöt, ilmastonmuutokseen sopeutuminen)

A new course in production: Biodiversity.now

Biodiversity education network is a joint project of five universities in Finland (the Universities of Eastern Finland, Helsinki, Oulu, Turku and the Jyväskylä) to develop a nationwide biodiversity education network and to answer to the learning needs in the field of biodiversity. The project is funded by the Ministry of Education and Culture. Biodiversity education network is collaborating with Climate University and Una Europa alliance in creating an online course about biodiversity, called Biodiversity.now. It consists of a 2-credit MOOC and a 3-credit project part.

Our goal is to design a multidisciplinary and interesting course to variety of learners. We want to pique students’ interest for biodiversity topics and offer diverse ways to understand and halt biodiversity crisis.

This course is designed for master’s level, but it is open to all people from different scientific fields. The MOOC-course contains five modules and pre-course part with biodiversity topics. Pre-course part is designed for the students who are less familiar with biodiversity. Topics of the course are biodiversity and its values, biodiversity crisis and causes of it, ways to halt biodiversity crisis, role of the media in biodiversity discussions and other recent topics.

When selecting pedagogical methods for the course, we pay attention especially to the possibilities of independent study, activation of students and deepening one’s understanding about biodiversity. We want to encourage learners to think about biodiversity from their field perspectives and personal interests.

Next steps in the course development are creating contents for the course, sorting out usage rights of the materials and planning the visual aspects for the course. If you are interested in creating content for the course, please contact us!

Biodiversity.now MOOC in a nutshell

  • 2 credits masters level course in English
  • Suitable for students from all scientific fields
  • Course contains 5 modules that include following topics:
    • Why is biodiversity crisis a topical issue?
    • What causes biodiversity crisis?
    • Where can the crisis lead to?
    • How can we halt biodiversity crisis?
    • Other topical issues and how media influences our concept of biodiversity?
  • Goal of the course is to activate students to think about biodiversity from the perspective of their own values, scientific field and future.
  • Course is made in cooperation with Climate University, Una Europa and Biodiversity education network of Finnish universities.
  • More info: biodiversityeducation.fi
