The FTA courses are designed for a online / distance education methodology mainly with course books and a series of group and individual activities under guidance of a university mentor. That said, the courses can be taught face2face as well, and some universities are doing that: they just download or link to the FTA course book(s) and work through them in a physical class room. Even with traditional lectures and slideshows if you want ;-)<br>
<font style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; background-color: rgb(245, 248, 240); font-size: 14px;">> </font><br><font style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; background-color: rgb(245, 248, 240); font-size: 14px;">> </font> If you start running these courses f2f, it might be of interest for the global community to record and stream the lectures you might organise. We could then stream them through the FTA site as well.<br>
<font style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; background-color: rgb(245, 248, 240); font-size: 14px;">> </font><br><font style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; background-color: rgb(245, 248, 240); font-size: 14px;">> </font> We'd also encourage you to make use of the FTA virtual campus: enrolled and free learners share case studies, bibliography, study projects etc etc through the various systems we have set up. Our idea is to facilitate the learning community as much as we can.<br>
<font style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; background-color: rgb(245, 248, 240); font-size: 14px;">> </font><br><font style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; background-color: rgb(245, 248, 240); font-size: 14px;">> </font> Regarding credits: you can issue your own certificate and credits, but it will depend on their recognition to value how much these are worth to the participants. With the FTA we have choosen to work with universities who recognise FTA Certificates and the ECTS credits as used in Europe. That way learners can continue their education and obtain official degrees at those universities.<br>
<font style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; background-color: rgb(245, 248, 240); font-size: 14px;">> </font><br><font style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; background-color: rgb(245, 248, 240); font-size: 14px;">> </font> Other forms of credits issued by peers might be very interesting and promising indeed. At Drumbeat Barcelona there was the badges project, see <a href="https://wiki.mozilla.org/Badges" target="_blank">https://wiki.mozilla.org/Badges</a><br>
