Cardiff University
Project Title
For an online educational platform on weapons of mass destruction issues
Date
Mar. 10, 2022
Duration
18 months
Description
Despite the continued threat posed by Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD), public knowledge of this threat has declined since the end of the Cold War. Through this project, Cardiff University would build and promote an online platform—”Highly NRiched”—for educational resources on WMD issues. By crowdsourcing resources, suggesting how they may be paired, and making it easy to upload groups of resources onto courseware sites, Highly NRiched would provide an innovative model for building, revising, and sharing syllabi. Through this project, Cardiff University would expand the type and number of students exposed to facts about WMD risks and enhance public awareness thereof.
