Our way of working and studying has been disrupted with the result of an acceleration of the shift to the digital world. To properly adapt to this change, we need to outline and implement new urgent strategies and approaches which put learning at the center, supporting workers and students to further develop "future proof" skills. In the last period, universities and educational institutions have demonstrated that they can play an important role in this context, also leveraging on the potential of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) which proved to be an important vehicle of flexibility and adaptation in a general context characterised by several constraints. From March 2020 till now, we have witnessed an exponential growth of MOOCs enrollments numbers, with "traditional" students interested in different topics not necessarily integrated to their curricular studies. To support students and faculty development during the spreading of the pandemic, Politecnico di Milano focused on one main dimension: faculty development for a better integration of digital tools and contents in the e-learning experience. The current discussion focuses on how to improve the integration of MOOCs in the in-presence activities to create meaningful learning and teaching experiences, thereby leveraging blended learning approaches to engage both students and external stakeholders to equip them with future job relevance skills.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{JacqminOezdemirFellKurbanetal.2021, author = {Jacqmin, Julien and {\"O}zdemir, Paker Doğu and Fell Kurban, Caroline and Tun{\c{c}} Pekkan, Zelha and Koskinen, Johanna and Suonp{\"a}{\"a}, Maija and Seng, Cheyvuth and Carlon, May Kristine Jonson and Gayed, John Maurice and Cross, Jeffrey S. and Langseth, Inger and Jacobsen, Dan Yngve and Haugsbakken, Halvdan and Bethge, Joseph and Serth, Sebastian and Staubitz, Thomas and Wuttke, Tobias and Nordemann, Oliver and Das, Partha-Pratim and Meinel, Christoph and Ponce, Eva and Srinath, Sindhu and Allegue, Laura and Perach, Shai and Alexandron, Giora and Corti, Paola and Baudo, Valeria and Turr{\´o}, Carlos and Moura Santos, Ana and Nilsson, Charlotta and Maldonado-Mahauad, Jorge and Valdiviezo, Javier and Carvallo, Juan Pablo and Samaniego-Erazo, Nicolay and Poce, Antonella and Re, Maria Rosaria and Valente, Mara and Karp Gershon, Sa'ar and Ruip{\´e}rez-Valiente, Jos{\´e} A. and Despujol, Ignacio and Busquets, Jaime and Kerr, John and Lorenz, Anja and Sch{\"o}n, Sandra and Ebner, Martin and Wittke, Andreas and Beirne, Elaine and Nic Giolla Mhich{\´i}l, Mair{\´e}ad and Brown, Mark and Mac Lochlainn, Conch{\´u}r and Topali, Paraskevi and Chounta, Irene-Angelica and Ortega-Arranz, Alejandro and Villagr{\´a}-Sobrino, Sara L. and Mart{\´i}nez-Mon{\´e}s, Alejandra and Blackwell, Virginia Katherine and Wiltrout, Mary Ellen and Rami Gaddem, Mohamed and Hern{\´a}ndez Reyes, C{\´e}sar Augusto and Nagahama, Toru and Buchem, Ilona and Okatan, Ebru and Khalil, Mohammad and Casiraghi, Daniela and Sancassani, Susanna and Brambilla, Federica and Mihaescu, Vlad and Andone, Diana and Vasiu, Radu and Şahin, Muhittin and Egloffstein, Marc and Bothe, Max and Rohloff, Tobias and Schenk, Nathanael and Schwerer, Florian and Ifenthaler, Dirk and Hense, Julia and Bernd, Mike}, title = {EMOOCs 2021}, editor = {Meinel, Christoph and Staubitz, Thomas and Schweiger, Stefanie and Friedl, Christian and Kiers, Janine and Ebner, Martin and Lorenz, Anja and Ubachs, George and Mongenet, Catherine and Ruip{\´e}rez-Valiente, Jos{\´e} A. and Cortes Mendez, Manoel}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-512-5}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-51030}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-510300}, pages = {vii, 295}, year = {2021}, abstract = {From June 22 to June 24, 2021, Hasso Plattner Institute, Potsdam, hosted the seventh European MOOC Stakeholder Summit (EMOOCs 2021) together with the eighth ACM Learning@Scale Conference. Due to the COVID-19 situation, the conference was held fully online. The boost in digital education worldwide as a result of the pandemic was also one of the main topics of this year's EMOOCs. All institutions of learning have been forced to transform and redesign their educational methods, moving from traditional models to hybrid or completely online models at scale. The learnings, derived from practical experience and research, have been explored in EMOOCs 2021 in six tracks and additional workshops, covering various aspects of this field. In this publication, we present papers from the conference's Experience Track, the Policy Track, the Business Track, the International Track, and the Workshops.}, language = {en} }
