Learning outcomes
|
The course focuses on the characteristic features of mobility and its relationship to sustainable development. It aims to introduce students to the key procedures and principles used in the planning, management, and monitoring of sustainable mobility, and to link the environmental, economic, social, and institutional dimensions of sustainable mobility with practical skills through gamification, while developing competencies in line with the GreenComp framework.
Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to: 1. Explain the key characteristics of mobility and its interlinkages with sustainable development goals. 2. Apply fundamental procedures for planning, managing, and monitoring sustainable mobility in urban and regional contexts. 3. Analyse the environmental, economic, social, and institutional dimensions of mobility and assess their implications for sustainable development. 4. Use gamification tools and methods to strengthen practical skills in the field of sustainable mobility. 5. Evaluate mobility measures and scenarios with regard to sustainability, efficiency, and user needs. 6. Collaborate effectively in teams when addressing complex mobility challenges and communicate results to both professional and non-expert stakeholders. 7. Develop and apply competencies in line with the GreenComp framework, including: systems thinking, futures literacy, responsible decisionmaking, participatory and inclusive approaches to sustainable solutions.
