Objectives of the call
Through this consultancy, VVOB’s aim is to:
- design two Moodle courses in Vietnamese, each for approximately 1,100 learners:
- one self-guided e-course on Facilitating an Online PLC
- one self-guided e-course on Online Coaching
VVOB Vietnam has a Moodle Cloud website with a basic VVOB-themed design which is currently only used by VVOB staff to develop online courses and to practice within Moodle. It is expected that the developed courses will be transferred to a VVOB’s Moodle following closure of the project. Therefore, the courses’ learning elements should have limited use of external plug ins.
The main objectives of this consultancy can be summarised as follows:
- To design 02 online training courses (a) an online training course on “Facilitating an online PLC” and (b) an online training course on “Online coaching” to be compatible with VVOB’s available learning platform of Moodle.
- Each course will contain a maximum of 20 hours of content (including: videos, forums, games and quizzes, assignments…).
- To develop and design the learning materials with collaboration of VVOB staff: a maximum of 17 animated videos, visual graphics and animated characters, comics, case studies and presentations.
