💡There’s huge potential for youth-centred, health-promoting MOOCs, but we need better design and meaningful youth involvement.

Thanks for leading Putu Novi Arfirsta Dharmayani with Jennifer Dam, Josephine Chau, Sara Wardak, Katrina Champion, @seemam.bsky.social
@stephaniepart.bsky.social

🧠 We analysed 23 studies and found:
- Only 6 focused on health topics
- Most MOOCs are not designed with adolescents in mind
- Co-design, visual content, and interactive formats matter
- Evaluation is often limited to self-reported surveys

📢 New publication just out from our @youthhealthhive.bsky.social Project!
 
This review provides foundational research as we build our Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) for young people. We explored how adolescents engage with open online courses in health and education
