Pauline Martinot, FIRE Phd student* co-lead of “The Project Sesameh” with Pr Annabelle Tenenbaum. Their goal is to create "the first open online MOOC" that would empower students in health in France for their "Service Sanitaire". The MOOC will allow every student to learn how to realize from A to Z an intervention in health promotion at school.
USING INTERDISCIPLINARITY TO PROMOTE HEALTH
Le Service Sanitaire is a set of actions, initiated in 2018, for all french students in health (nurses, doctors, dentists, midwives, physical therapists...) to work as an interdisciplinary team, to implement a health promotion program in schools, in order to raise awareness about a positive and encouraging vision of health.
Three teams from CRI are involved and mobilized in this project : Sapiens and the Institut des Défis for the pedagogical engineering and the MOOC Studio for the realization of the videos.

The project rose enthusiasm and got awarded by the grant The Initiative of Excellence “Université Paris 2019" which “is a world-class university centre implementing innovative and structuring programmes in the fields of research, training, student life and knowledge transfer on an international scale.
