FUNDING MOOC PROJECTS TEMORARILY ON HOLD
On 28 June 2022, the Rector decided on the recommendation of the Teaching Committee to temporarily discontinue the promotion of MOOCs via Innovedum. The main reason for this is the takeover of the non-profit organisation edx.org by the commercial operator 2U.com. At the same time, the Rector has instructed the UTL to develop a new strategy for MOOCs at ETH by the end of 2022. The submission of blended learning projects is still possible and welcomed!

Educational Media offers
EduMedia (UTL) develops audiovisual media from idea to dissemination in co-design with the teachers. Potential collaborations can be worked out together in a brainstorming session. If a collaboration comes about, the EduMedia team is also happy to accompany and support the teachers in the application process, so that a seamless embedding of media in the project development can be ensured. In this way, the costs necessary for implementation can be better estimated and the products can be tailored to the specific requirements and needs of the teachers and their innovative project idea.
If content videos are to be produced in a studio environment, ID MMP offers to produce a prototyping video in the video studio free of charge. The prototyping video will help you to better estimate the work involved and the costs. Please contact ID MMP at an early stage to arrange the shooting of your prototype video and to ask for the estimated production costs for the "final" videos.
For all media that will be produced, a quote should be included with the project application.
