<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The idea of the '''''Students' talk''' ''is to help one student get to know more about what the others in university do and learn from them.</span></span>
<div><br/></div><div><span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">A student will basically tell the story of his/her life - what are his/her successes until now, what is his major / occupation / intersts, hobbies / advices from personal experience / what makes him/her happy / what motivates him/her to move forward and succeed in life / passions.</span></span><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The public could engage in the talk - ask questions, have dialogues with the specific student.</span></span></div><div><br/></div><div><span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The event will be held at least once a month, depending on the interest and availability of the students - potentially - 2 to 3 times per month. Each talk will take about an hour. If needed, the time could always be expanded.</span></span><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The students talking could be selected based on polls with student votes, or when a specific student wants to present himself/herself.</span></span></div><div><br/></div><div><span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">I truly believe that an event like this could bring closer the students from different faculties, help them broaden their horizons, expand their point of view, get to know more about the other students in the university and last but not least - make them more innovative and creative not just for a specific topic - but for their whole life in general. In my opinion, the '''''Students' talk '''''would be a life changer for many students because it would inspire them to change their life for the better in an innovative manner.</span></span></div><div><br/></div><div><br/></div>

<div>
<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The idea of '''''Coffee with a professor''''' is to establish a connection between the professors and students, as well as to inspire them.</span></span>
<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">I honestly believe that such an event will be especially helpful for the freshmen at university by inspiring them and giving them advice. It can also diversify their viewpoints about the different events happening all around campus. It will make them feel valued and give them the ability to establish a professional relationship that may be of help in the future.</span></span>

<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">1. FLASH IDEAS ZONE = FLASH IDEA BLACKBOARD = IDEA BOX = UNIVERSITY BRAINSTORMING IDEA - WHY - HOW TO DO - HOW MUCH - WHEN WILL GET THE IDEARESULTS</span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">1. THE IDEA: The main idea of the project is to create an interesting and easily accessible space for students and teachers to present their flash ideas and thoughts impulsively and if you prefer anonymously. All students, professors and administration should have easy access to Flash Zone ideas. It would be important to give a topic each week to induce and ask for opinions, ideas and suggestions.</span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">2. WHY?</span> <span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">– Non-motivating environment Some summarize it like this: "I get bored, nothing awakens my interest". However, there is something more important behind that lack of student commitment. Internally, we found a feeling of demotivation as their learning environment that "did not provide an innate motivation". On an external level we concluded that the students felt that there was a lack of collaboration between students and teachers, with the absence of social signals and a high fear of isolation. Therefore, those feelings are important to detect.</span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Brainstorming is a technique in which a specific topic is established and greatest possible number of ideas are contributed in a given time frame. In this scenario of creativity all provided ideas have the same value and are interest. The environment is informal, relaxed and open for inspiration to flow freely and everyone is encouraged to participate regardless of the nature of their idea. Is a technique that is usually used to confront a problem and find a solution using together the ideas of all members of the university and creating an atmosphere of union and cooperation, which is beneficial for the environment of Varna Free university .</span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">3. HOW WE DO IT</span> <span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">We need boards and Post-it Notes of colors where each one can write down their thought or flash idea and paste it to the table so it can be read by everybody. Should have boards in all common areas of the university</span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">1. (1) in the main room of the Varna Free University,</span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">3. (1) for each hall on each floor of the university</span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">4. (1) the Technological Institute of the university. </span> <span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">THE RESULTS WE SEEK AND EXPECT:</span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">1. To make students and teachers feel that we want to hear their thoughts, ideas, and suggestions about important topics of life, studies, improvements in the university, etc.</span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">BENEFITS: Friendly and united University environment and endless innovative ideas.</span>
