Last week marked the launch of a fantastic initiative that we are fortunate to be involved in – Study with New Zealand Online – a joint venture between FutureLearn, Education New Zealand, and a select number of providers from NZ institutions.
We have been developing a range of self-directed, online opportunities for learners in conjunction with our teaching packages over the past 12 months. FutureLearn is the perfect platform to us to showcase options for individuals and schools to meet learning demands in an ever-evolving education space.
Our current offering is a 4-week course using the drama/thriller Skippers Pass series including vocabulary, watching, grammar, reading, listening and discussion activities. A feature of the FutureLearn experience is that learners are encouraged to interact with each other as they progress through the course, and this adds a real level of connectivity that is sometimes missing from competitor’s offerings.
