What could happen if you let your students co-design activities, and drive their own learning? This Pecha Kucha describes the results of a co-design pilot during which students created content and designed delivery of a weekly bolt-on Enterprise and Employability group, made it more inclusive and increased the attendance by up to 80%. (Background – cohort size 460 comprising: Home/EU 52% International students 48%. Discipline: Graphic Design)
They rewrote session titles, bypassed the VLE, designed communication strategies and tailored content. It outlines the positive results when disengaged international students took active roles within the group.  The key message: Expert educators should utilise co-design to enhance learning in enterprise skills for disengaged students.
Key message: Educators have to learn to let go in co-design to increase learning.
