<span id="docs-internal-guid-57185263-7fff-4522-67d4-2b019816a2e6"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">We came up with a few possible solutions on how we could inform students about events, workshops and people outside of their degree, that they might be interested in.</span></span>

<span id="docs-internal-guid-57185263-7fff-4522-67d4-2b019816a2e6"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">As there are lots of resources on campus but many students are not aware of them, or are confused because of all the different websites, emails and contact points, a small flyer with the most important information could help.</span></span>
<span id="docs-internal-guid-57185263-7fff-4522-67d4-2b019816a2e6"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This prototype shows an easy and condensed guide for students about where they can get advice about business ideas and start-ups, have an overview of the resources available and where they can get further information and ways to develop their skills.</span></span>
<div><span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></span><br/></div><div><span id="docs-internal-guid-e4bded37-7fff-ed77-1a5e-0bd3a2a55f63"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Feedback from students showed that the guide would have to be easy to understand with only the most important information on them, otherwise they might just land in the bin. It would have to be clear that every student can access those resources, no matter what they study or what skills they have. To make it most useful and least intimidating to students, the flyer should be as small and concise as possible.</span></span></div><div><span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></span><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><span style="font-size:larger;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-weight: 700; white-space: pre-wrap;">Strategy 2: Timetable that shows all events on campus</span></span></div>
<span id="docs-internal-guid-1596a8e1-7fff-46f7-5828-74d94a39c416"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Using a window of the “Work in Progress” space, which is located in the centre of campus, would be perfect to put a big timetable with all the events, workshops, competitions etc. that are related to innovation, entrepreneurship, start-ups and design thinking. Students would walk past it everyday, can have a quick overview of the events and if they´re interested in an event they can scan the QR-code next to the event to get further information about it and book their place. To keep the timetable up-to-date, we would create a template which can be filled out by the people responsible for the event and once a week the timetable would be renewed.</span></span>

By doing this, it would make it easy for students to just have a quick look at it while walking past it and having a look at it for longer when they have spotted an event of interest. As interviewed students have expressed their desire for convenience when getting informed this would be an important aspect as well as the QR-codes.</span></span></div><div><span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></span><br/></div>
