Moreover, the online format allows the content to be accessed from anywhere, as long as the participant has an internet connection. This includes the use of a computer, tablet, or smartphone, further facilitating participation.
Free course in Active Learning Methodologies focuses on student protagonism
The main objective of the free course is to present the fundamentals of Active Learning Methodologies, which are educational approaches that encourage active participation from students.
Unlike traditional teaching, where the teacher is the center, these methodologies place the student as the main agent of learning. Thus, the content seeks to stimulate engagement and autonomy.
Among the topics covered are basic concepts, benefits, and even myths related to this teaching model, which helps to build a comprehensive view on the subject.
Federal Institute presents practical and interactive contents
The Federal Institute structured the free course with a variety of teaching resources. Participants have access to videos, animations, interactive books, and supplementary materials.
Additionally, the content includes specific methodologies such as flipped classroom, problem-based learning, projects, gamification, and design thinking — a creative approach used to solve problems.
Another differentiator is the presence of activities throughout the course, which help in content retention, although they do not directly count towards the final grade.
Free course from the Federal Institute allows learning at your own pace
One of the advantages of the free course offered by the Federal Institute is flexibility. Since it is a MOOC (massive open online course), students can study at their own pace.
The contents are available from the start, allowing each participant to organize their schedules. However, some activities are only released after the completion of previous stages, ensuring a logical progression in learning.
Furthermore, there is a collaborative forum where students can share experiences, ask questions, and contribute to collective learning.
Evaluation and certification in the free course of Active Learning Methodologies
To obtain the certificate, the participant of the free course needs to take a final evaluation in the form of a questionnaire. The test is worth 100 points and can be taken up to three times.
The system considers the highest score obtained, which increases the chances of approval. To guarantee the certificate, it is necessary to achieve at least 60% of the total score.
Thus, the course not only offers knowledge but also formally recognizes the learning acquired.
How to enroll in the free course of the Federal Institute?
Enrollment for the free course in Active Learning Methodologies is already open and can be done through the official IFRO platform.
The process is simple and entirely online, without bureaucracy. After registration, the student can start studying immediately.
Therefore, the initiative of the Federal Institute represents a relevant opportunity for those who wish to update themselves in the educational field, with flexibility, quality, and free access to knowledge.
