MHPE, canvassing for change?

By  

The year 2020 did not start well for MHPE …. First the cyber-attack, and now many of our participants are at the frontline fighting the Coronavirus. Even those who are not directly involved are hampered in, for example, collecting data for their thesis.

Once more, we see the need for flexible time schedules, one of the considerations that led to our current curriculum review process. In the meantime MHPE staff is preparing to move from EleUM to Canvas, the new Learning Management System (LMS) of Maastricht University. For the coming year, the structures will remain largely the same, but hopefully with a better interface. For the new curriculum, starting in 2021, things will change more drastically. The new curriculum is taking shape, and we are starting to draw a new picture on the canvas. The structure is clear, so we can start drawing in time lines, progress procedures, and assessment plans. Different groups are writing new learning tasks, so that we will be able to provide more flexibility in content too. To be continued!
