The students were engaged in various group settings and benefitted from a high method mix: from mapping techniques, video analysis, comedy script writing to pecha kucha pitches and design thinking tools.

Technically, the sessions were facilitated by the conference tool GoToMeeting and the collaboration tools Mural and Klaxoon. OneDrive was used for uploading the students’ completed assignments.
