a) Planning: Each student writes in her/his study diary on the class OneNote and answers the questions: how many episodes, chapters and quizzes she/he intends to do this week within the time frame of at least three lessons (time planning), etc. (it's all there, check it out).

b) Go through the episodes, chapters, videos, quizzes, ...
=>learn, ask, have fun, be astonished, get curious, discuss with your class members, etc.
=>you must insert your personal proofs (screenshots) in the class OneNote (private section "edX Circular Economy"), as well as the state of the art of your "Progress diagram".

c) Done: Fill out & complete your study diary: reflect about your learning process, what was difficult, what topic did you like and why / why not? Are there new questions emerging regarding the specific topic?
