As part of the Erasmus+ CREATIVEinGREEN project, the pilot implementation of the training programme was carried out at Universidade da Maia (Portugal) and Akdeniz University (Türkiye), involving approximately 210 students and seven teachers. Both project courses — Green the Web: Sustainable UX/UI Design and Empowering Creative Entrepreneurship in the Digital Age — were tested together with the Moodle environment and the complementary Virtual Learning Scenario.
The evaluation included 117 completed questionnaires from participants with different levels of previous experience in sustainability and digital design. Around two thirds reported either no previous experience or only partial experience in these areas, showing that the courses reached a diverse audience.
The results were strongly positive. 90.6% of respondents were satisfied with the course overall, while 89.7% would recommend it to other students or professionals. All course-evaluation dimensions exceeded the project target of 75% positive evaluations, with results ranging from 83.5% to 92.3%.
A key strength was the connection between theory and practice. 92.3% of respondents agreed that the exercises and activities helped them apply the concepts introduced during the course. Participants particularly valued practical exercises, project work, real-world examples and sustainability-related content.
The course structure, learning objectives, workload and progression were also rated very positively, while Moodle navigation and access to materials were generally well received. The main areas for further development concerned additional practical activities, more real-life and industry examples, richer visual and multimedia resources, improved organisation of the digital learning environment, and regular updates to content related to AI and emerging technologies.
Overall, the pilot confirmed that the CREATIVEinGREEN programme provides a relevant, flexible and transferable framework for Higher Education. Future development should focus mainly on enriching the existing approach rather than substantially restructuring it.
