Course Overview
Our brain continues to develop throughout childhood and adolescence. It becomes fully matured only after the age of twenty. This development is influenced by environmental factors such as physical activity, nutrition, and the amount and quality of sleep. Would you like to learn how environmental factors affect the functioning of adolescent brains? Are you interested in the effect upbringing has on this?
This MOOC will examine these factors in greater depth. After an introduction to the general theme, it will cover subjects such as physical activity and learning
nutrition and learning
and sleep and learning. In addition the role of upbringing for learning will also be discussed. Are you interested in research? Then you can also delve deeper into these subjects through more advanced learning material and assignments.
From 15th of July 2016 the MOOC will be opened for self-study, without support from teachers.
The MOOC contains eight lessons, a short introductory lesson and six lessons on the topic, each of approximately 3 – 5 hours study load without additional material. The lessons are designed as a sequence, but each can be taken and completed separately should you wish so. Lesson 7 is an integration lesson that allows you to consolidate your knowledge and the topics. It also contains a questionnaire we hope that you will complete to help us evaluate and improve the MOOC. Furthermore in lesson 8 you will find two questionnaires that will help us evaluate your experiences with the EMMA platform and use that to improve the EMMA platform. We appreciate your assistance in completing all questionnaires.
