The implementation of MOOCs (Mini-October Courses) demonstrates the strong commitment of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Vietnam National University, Hanoi, to innovating teaching methods, providing learners with new knowledge through digitized learning, and meeting the requirements for high-quality human resources.
The e-learning lecture is designed with a learner-centered philosophy with 04 principles: (1) Personalized learning; (2) Content designed in a problem-solving direction; (3) Lessons built using Microlearning methods; (4) Active learning.
Accordingly, students are allowed to learn at their own pace, anytime, anywhere; lectures foster creativity through solving real-world problems, rather than simply instructing on tool usage; content is broken down into smaller, concise sections suitable for online learning; and students are completely proactive in their learning.
The MOOCs (Mobile Open Online Courses) for the Applied Informatics course are designed with 11 modules, focusing on advanced, up-to-date, and practical topics, including:
Lesson 1. Fundamentals of Information Technology
Lesson 2. Digital Transformation and Data Mining
Lesson 3. Overview of Artificial Intelligence
Lesson 4. Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Content Creation
Lesson 5. The Internet and Privacy
Lesson 6. Basic Text Processing
Lesson 7. Advanced Word Processing
Lesson 8. Basic Spreadsheet Processing
Lesson 9. Advanced Spreadsheet Processing
Lesson 10. Using basic presentations
Lesson 11. Using advanced slideshows
The lectures are built on a modern technological platform, integrating multimedia elements such as high-definition video, vivid sound, and user-friendly interactive features. With nearly 30 video clips in total, each lesson is divided into concise sections to facilitate student comprehension. Accompanying learning materials include 5 sets of multiple-choice questions and 6 sets of practice exercises, helping students reinforce their knowledge and develop application skills.
From a pedagogical perspective, the lecture ensures a comprehensive teaching and learning process, from problem-solving to knowledge assessment, encouraging students to actively explore and solve problems.
The lecture content not only ensures accuracy and adherence to academic criteria but also strictly complies with the regulations of the Party and the State. References are cited clearly and transparently.
The course materials have been packaged according to the SCORM standard, ensuring smooth operation on learning management systems (LMS) and high compatibility with the internet, contributing to the sustainability of digital and personalized training deployment.
