MicroLabs

Three people around a smart screen.

MicroLabs are short, blended how-to modules about specific educational issues lasting two to four hours. Each MicroLab has a clear goal and a clear result. After preparing (and qualifying) in Canvas, you can participate in a live session of the MicroLab. In this session you work on your own educational material. This means that after the MicroLab, you will have a concrete result for your own education.

Learn more about MicroLabs

The MicroLabs are developed by research and training institute Risbo and made possible by the Community for Learning & Innovation. To keep the MicroLabs interactive, they always take place in a small group. As an EUR teacher, you can participate for free.

Earn an Edubadge

If you made the preparation and participated in the session, you can earn an Edubadge. This is a digital, visual certificate which you can share on e.g. LinkedIn. Interested parties can immediately click on the certificate to find out what you have done to achieve the Edubadge.
