Problèmes Energétiques Globaux (FUN)

Offered by Mines ParisTech,
Problèmes Energétiques Globaux (FUN)

Après le succès de la première session du MOOC Problèmes Énergétiques Globaux, qui a réuni près de 9000 inscrits et dont le taux de réussite à l'examen final a été de 81 %, toute l'équipe pédagogique du MOOC est heureuse de vous retrouver sur la plateforme FUN pour l'ouverture d'une seconde session. Nous espérons qu'elle vous permettra, par le biais de ressources et d'activités variées, d'acquérir ou d'enrichir vos connaissances sur l'énergie

L'énergie étant un vaste domaine qui peut être abordé sous des angles multiples, l'approche retenue est de commencer par donner une base technique sur l'énergie, et donc l'offre d'énergie, dépendante des ressources et des filières technologiques disponibles, avant de s'intéresser à la demande, c'est-à-dire aux dimensions macro et socio-économiques, puis d'aborder les grandes questions mondiales relatives à l'énergie, et enfin de terminer par l'étude des principales questions qui se posent aujourd'hui dans ce secteur.

Comme lors de la première session, cette session 2 cherche à fournir une base de réflexion sur l'ensemble des problèmes énergétiques. A la fin de ce cours, vous aurez étudié les principales problématiques, présentes et futures, existant dans le domaine de l'énergie.

Strong sustainability and Europe (FUN)

Sustainable development, popularized by the Brundtland Report, was defined at the end of the 1980s in three spheres (economic, environmental and social). It is this representation that continues today to be disseminated to the public and to large companies. The objective of this MOOC is to question the major challenges of development for Europe in a perspective of strong sustainability (energy, climate, biodiversity, food, mobility, agriculture, natural resources, education...) and to propose alternatives.

21st Century Energy Transition: how do we make it work? (Coursera)

Affordable, abundant and reliable energy is fundamental to human well-being and prosperity. For the past 150 years, more and more people have gained access to energy, primarily in the form of fossil fuels – coal, petroleum and natural gas. But now, even while half of humanity cannot access adequate energy supplies, we are beginning a profound transition to more diverse energy sources. Climate change, environmental sustainability, and energy poverty are all important – and sometimes conflicting – drivers as we strive to supply more energy to more people with fewer negative impacts on Earth’s environments.

Energy, Environment, and Everyday Life (Coursera)

This course teaches you everything you need to know about energy, the environment, and at least a number of things in everyday life. It starts by talking about energy itself and where it comes from. This includes how much we have, who has it, who uses it, and what that all means. The video clips are produced in a fast-paced multimedia format during which Professor Ruzic throws in fun and demonstrations. There are multiple-choice questions to check your understanding and some more in-depth exercises to guide you deeper into the subject.
