Project activities - The basic operating principle:

Each subject area will be initiated by intensive program week. In this, 6 students from all institutions are participating on the design of the study material an its production.
As the course is finished, the course will be run for the first time during the project. This will involve larger audience from all institutions and include virtual exchange/online collaboration between institutions.
Based on the experiences and student feedback, the course can be further developed during the project. This finalizes the ”production version” of each course.

Target groups: universities, their employees, students and future students, companies
