Social Pedagogy across Europe
Social Pedagogy across Europe is the first Massive Open Online Course focused on social pedagogy – a relationship-centred approach to supporting people’s learning, well-being and social inclusion in ways that promote social justice. The course is structured in eight sessions presented over four weeks – an introductory session, six sessions outlining social pedagogy in different European countries and sharing some innovative practice insights, and a review session to support you in applying your learning. You can undertake the six country sessions in any order you would like. Through this course, we aim to: 1. Give you an insight into how social pedagogy has been developing across Europe, highlighting both the diversity and connections, 2. Highlight the importance of valuing every person as intrinsically ‘rich’, recognising their unique potential and ability to be a valuable member of society, 3. Introduce you to ways in which you can bring this belief to life in everyday interactions and relationships that support people’s learning, nurture their well-being and enable them to feel included in society, 4. Ensure you are familiar with the most fundamental aspects of social pedagogical practice in ways that are applicable in your own personal and professional life. If you are currently working with children, young people, families, community groups, vulnerable adults or older people, then this course will be highly relevant. You will gain a panoramic overview of social pedagogy, which explores the principles and key thematic areas in ways that are practice-relevant and can be easily applied in any educational and care setting.

Lightcap 1: Fundamentals of light's impact
Light is one of our most valuable resources on this earth. It makes the world visible to us, is the major driver of the 24-hr sleep-wake cycle to which not only humans, but virtually all life on earth (fauna and flora) submits. In fact, there would be no life on earth without light. It is therefore hard to overestimate the impact light has on humans, biologically, psychologically, socially. And yet, we hardly ever think or speak about light. LIGHTCAP’s 1 “Behind the scenes” will provide fundamental knowledge about visual and non-visual systems in the brain and about the way in which light interacts with relevant brain systems and regions. It closes with a brief perspective on the ways that we can benefit from light. The course is one in a series of four, each with a different disciplinary basis and with complementary perspectives to the domain of light for humans. The basis of this course is mostly neuroscience. In this course you will: (1) learn how photoreceptors detect light, what cell types exist in the retina, how they are arranged, and how this allows the retina to detect light and extract visual information (2) learn about a novel photoreceptor -- melanopsin-expressing, intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) -- and understand how melanopsin acts to sense light and how it contributes to non-image forming vision (3) learn basic knowledge about brain pathways from ipRGCs to relevant brain regions and how we came to know about them (4) be introduced to the body clock, circadian rhythmicity, how light acts on the body clock, and how, in turn, the clock influences numerous functions in our body (5) dive deeper into a specific neural substrate: the locus coeruleus (also termed blue spot) - its anatomy, firing patterns and projections, and the functions of the LC and its relationship with light (6) get a basic introduction of brain imaging techniques that are being used to study the pathways and effects of light in humans and explains the working of, rationale for, MRI, fMRI and EEG in somewhat more detail (7) be introduced to the basic concepts of metamerism and its potential usage in neuroscience and research on light in particular (8) be introduced to the many relationships between light and health
