Metodología
Students are introduced to the project at the beginning of the programme. The remainder of the programme equips students to complete the project through a mixture of learning by listening and by doing. Students are introduced to key concepts, frameworks and ideas in the classroom which then become workshops. The workshops involve working in teams, researching and discussing ideas, and ultimately pulling everything together in order to deliver a presentation detailing their proposal.
