Rethinking roles and responsibilities

  • Faculty and students can see form and add comments
  • Submit at any moment (you decide when the admission is finished)
  • Form generates book/posters/animation/etc. that serves as workbook
  • Form defines set of classes that a student will take + classes will be added by faculty and peers
  • App will be used throughout entire studies as a way to track progress, as an extra tool to assess, etc.
  • Student can become teacher
