Firstly of all, this course is free: free to attend without any charge, free of cost for books or other materials, free for anyone independently of prior education; and free in terms of your personal time commitment that you decide to dedicate to it (Though we would like you to spend on a minimum 2 hours per week). The only thing you will need is a PC and internet access.

The objective of this course is for you to become a knowledgeable ne(x)t generation learner that:

1. Is able to update his skills and knowledge self-dependently within a lifelong learning context
2. Knows how to take full advantage of the web to support your own learning, to collaborate with others and use the tools required to do so
3. Is capable to find sources at the web and to critically evaluate and analyse them
4. Is aware about available free online and desktop software solutions that facilitate learning, knowledge exchange and collaboration
5. Knows how to find online communities, to engage in them for personal support, and to and understands the way they function
6. Has the today’s required soft skills; like to communicate, collaborate and engage in discussions with others, defend your own work and thoughts and present them, know how to manage a project, or how to resolve conflicts

The course is supposed to be an open and participatory learning experience that involves practical ‘hands-on’ sessions where your learning activities and the things you create will become a part of the course. This is to say that future course participants should be enabled to benefit from your achievements and build upon the things you started, instead of starting from scratch.

The course will allow you to act not only as a learner, but to become an active contributor and co-creator. You will be asked to establish your own course learning projects or to join into course learning projects of others; and you also will have a voice to tell us what you think this course still needs.

This course is a pilot course in the light of free and open education. Participants of this course can expect tutoring (support), but will not receive any official degree awarding certificate or credit points from the course team.
