The Micro-Credential Program offers the opportunity to summarise your experiences and findings from the four units of the MOOC in a reflective paper and to examine the topic 'Cultural Heritage Protection & Climate Change' in depth. Besides the introspective part, where you will be asked to critically reflect on the interdisciplinary content of the course, you will also be asked to apply your learning to a practical cultural landscape case study from your personal environment.

Cultural Heritage Protection in Climate Change online
(CHePiCC online)

Climate change and related natural disasters represent one of the greatest threats to cultural heritage and cultural landscapes in the 21st century. CHePiCC online presents interdisciplinary research on climate change and its impact on cultural heritage. The MOOC, developed as part of the research project of the same name, anchors measures to protect cultural heritage from the risks of climate change in higher education and emphasises the importance of our cultural heritage as a resource for the future. The aim is to enable future generations to protect and preserve our cultural heritage and identity.

Module 1: CHePiCC online - MOOC
Module 2: Reflecting Paper

  • Contents

    Requirement: Successful completion of Module 1 (Course Certificate)

    In this module you will summarise your experiences and insights from the four units of the MOOC (Module 1) in a reflective paper and critically discuss the content you have learnt. All four units of the MOOC have to be covered.
    In this reflective paper, you will discuss what you took away from the MOOC, what was new to you, what you have learned, what you have enjoyed and what you would have liked to see covered in addition. At the same time, take a critical look at the aspects of the MOOC that you did not like.

    In addition to reflecting on the course content, you are required to include a case study on a cultural landscape or heritage site of your choice. For the case study, we encourage you to choose a cultural landscape or heritage site that you know well and that fascinates you personally - because it is close to where you live, because you like to visit it, because it has always fascinated you, because you know the challenges it has to face, etc.

    Based on the content of the MOOC, you will describe the chosen case study, including visual material, and analyse the impact of climate change and climate-related risks or disasters on the chosen cultural heritage site or cultural landscape. The reasons for selecting the case study will also be explained.

    This module will provide you with the opportunity to deepen your knowledge of cultural property protection, to discuss practical approaches and to engage with the challenges of climate change for cultural heritage.


    Total length of the paper: 24,000 - 30,000 characters (including spaces)
