HOPE E-COURSE for FORMAL CAREGIVERS -ENGLISH

MODULE 1: INTRODUCTION

 Welcome to the first module of this e-learning!

 

 This module is about sustainable development goals and climate change and consists of 4 weeks of work. Every week deals with a different topic and will be completed with an assignment. To check your knowledge, you can complete these for yourself. At the end of the module, you will find a multiple-choice test. You can upload your answers and will receive feedback immediately.

 In the first week, you will learn about the UN sustainable development goals. These 17 goals are aimed to change the world for the better. Of great importance is the interdependency of these goals.

In the second week the focus will shift towards climate change: what is it? And what are the important aspects and signs of climate change? A logical continuation of this is the question of what causes climate change, and what are its effects. This will be dealt with in week 3. The final week in this module is about one of the important effects of climate change: heat waves. You will learn about this phenomenon, which is a necessary base for the next modules of this e-learning.

 For this module, the following subgoals have been formulated:

1: The student can explain the different UN sustainable development goals
2: The student can explain the phenomenon of climate change 
3: The student gains a comprehensive understanding of the primary causes and effects of climate change
