Excellent MOOC in Dutch
Posted: Mon Mar 13, 2017 8:52 pm
What looks like an excellent MOOC just started. It is a FutureLearn MOOC, given by the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen.
The subject is: Inleiding Nederlands Recht (Introduction to Dutch law). I have worked through part of Week 1 and I am impressed. The videos are excellent, with very clear Dutch audio and full, exact transcripts.
The subject material is of general interest and should provide excellent vocabulary, sentences and situations.
Week 1: What is the law?
Week 2: Constitutional law
Week 3: Civil law
Week 4: Administrative law
Week 5: Criminal law
The material seems to be very accessible. So far, no legalese and unfathomable detail. There seems to be a whole lot of material including videos, text and quizzes. And very important for language learning, there is already a whole lot of discussion and participation in the Course Forum.
I would be very interested in having some discussions here, in English and in Dutch, with others who decide to follow this course, as we work through the course.
