The goal of the project is to share university content on sustainability with international partner universities and to establish the subject especially in the curricula of courses which traditionally pay little attention to sustainability concepts. The Eco Campus platform forms the link between the students and these materials. Due to the high number of international students, who use the newly created and customized Moodle instance, there is a high degree of heterogeneity. At the same time at each partner university lecturers from different disciplines and cultural backgrounds are teaching, so that the materials for the envisaged Flipped Classroom concept must be provided flexibly. The portfolio of digital tools within the learning platform is diverse. The instance includes different scenarios for synchronous and asynchronous communication and collaboration. In addition, various formative and video-based assessments, gamification approaches and various Video formats are used. The methods follow at the macro level (total of all courses) Bruner's approach of the spiral curriculum and in the micro-level (a course) Kolb's experiential learning cycle.}, language = {en} } @misc{ShvetzPalekhovaPalekhovetal., author = {Shvetz, Vasily and Palekhova, Ludmila and Palekhov, Dmitry and Simon, Sylvio}, title = {Energy efficiency criteria as a focus for market-driven strategies of large companies in transition economies}, series = {Journal Scientific Bulletin of National Mining University}, journal = {Journal Scientific Bulletin of National Mining University}, number = {6}, issn = {2071-2227}, pages = {157 -- 164}, abstract = {The purpose of the presented research is to reveal the critical importance of energy efficiency indicators for large industrial companies from countries with economies in transition for increasing their competitiveness in local and global markets.}, language = {en} } @incollection{PalekhovSarmientoSierra, author = {Palekhov, Dmitry and Sarmiento Sierra, Nicolas}, title = {Exploring the nexus between bioeconomy and sustainability : towards a sustainable and circular bioeconomy enabled by innovation}, series = {Circular economy and sustainable development : a necessary nexus for a sustainable future}, booktitle = {Circular economy and sustainable development : a necessary nexus for a sustainable future}, editor = {Stefanakis, Alexandros I. and Nikolaou, Ioannis E.}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-031-66006-1}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-031-66007-8_38}, pages = {705 -- 725}, abstract = {Bioeconomy is currently perceived by scientists and policymakers as a solution to reduce human dependence on fossil resources by using biomass as an alternative energy and material input. Although bio-based economies are not new, the concept of the bioeconomy has considerably evolved over the last decades. It has become a technology-driven economic paradigm expected to bring substantial benefits to people and the environment thanks to the potential of technological innovations to eliminate or mitigate some of the negative impacts caused by fossil resources. However, despite the considerable potential that several bio-based innovations are bringing to the market, the level of sustainability of the current and future state of the bioeconomy is uncertain, and the side effects during and after its implementation are often underestimated. This is especially relevant for the early stages of the value chain when biomass is produced and pre-treated. In this context, the chapter examines the nexus between sustainability and bioeconomy and analyses how the sustainable development framework has reshaped the understanding and purpose of such an economic paradigm. It explores the bioeconomy evolution as a concept and investigates how the circular economy, chemistry, biotechnology, and Power-to-X processes could support the transition towards the 'sustainable and circular bioeconomy'.}, language = {en} }
