We know that participants in this CoMOOC want to learn things that will be useful in their professional context.

However, transferring knowledge from an educational to a workplace context is challenging. Researchers from Graz University of Technology and UCL are conducting some research (independently from FutureLearn) to find ways to support professionals to reflect on their learning, make a plan and then put the plan into place.

We are asking you to help us with this research. We have created a chatbot and we want to see if it helps you to make that link between learning and practice. This will help us develop the chatbot further and, we hope, improve both the learning experience, and the impact of that learning experience, for professionals. You can find out more about the research here.

We will ask you to chat again at the end of the subsequent weeks. We plan to analyse the anonymous responses to see if this helps support applied learning on a course like this and we assure you that you will not be identified in any of the research. And if you choose to, you can keep in touch with Rebo and chat again.
