The Centre for Educational Technology and Excellence (CETE) at The Maldives National University (MNU) contributed to the implementation of the Education 5.0 – Digital Transformation of Higher Education Training Programme, under the DIGITAsia Project’s Work Package 2 (WP2): Skilling-Up for Education 5.0.
The programme engaged 24 MNU lecturers from Social Sciences, Health and Medicine, STEM, and Education, equipping them with skills to integrate digital technologies and Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles into teaching and learning.
CETE’s participation included Ms. Roza Ibrahim, Dr. Ramiz Ali, Ms. Aminath Zifna, and Mr. Ibrahim Adam, who took part in the programme alongside other MNU participants. Their involvement contributed to the University’s efforts to strengthen digital teaching capacity and promote inclusive learning practices.
Through the programme, participants redesigned their courses with mentoring and guidance, culminating in a Capstone Workshop where they presented and refined their work. As a result, 24 redesigned subjects were implemented in MNU Moodle for Term 1, 2026 (February–June), reaching approximately 155 students.
