Sports for skills development
Commonwealth Educational Media Centre for Asia (CEMCA) is collaborating with Pro Sport Development (PSD) to create the massive open online course (MOOC) Developing 21st-Century Skills through Sports.
CEMCA and PSD organised a consultation to discuss the draft outline of the MOOC and elicit feedback from physical education practitioners — the MOOC’s target audience.
The MOOC will be 12 to 14 hours long with four modules. Its objective is to train physical education practitioners to use sports as a medium for helping learners develop essential modern skills such as problem solving, critical thinking, creativity, team building and leadership.
