AQU@TEACH
AQU@TEACH is a unique multidisciplinary curriculum for Higher Education. The 15 module Aquaponics Curriculum (5 ECTS) and the supplementary Entrepreneurial Skills module (2 ECTS) can be taught either using blended learning – combining digital media and the Internet with classroom formats that require the physical co-presence of the teacher and students – or as an instructor-led, cohort-based e-learning course. The modules employ innovative didactic practices suited to blended learning and e-learning to encourage a mixture of student dialogue and collaboration, autonomy, critical thinking, and creativity. All AQU@TEACH resources are freely available.
