ESEI employs a project-based learning and assessment methodology across all modules taught in our master programmes. This innovative approach means students collaborate in groups to develop projects that demand creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities.
The primary advantage of this method is that by the time students graduate, they will have compiled a portfolio of work. This portfolio will be directly relevant to their future roles, whether as employees or business owners, showcasing their hands-on experience and skills.
Project formats vary and are at the discretion of the instructor. Projects can take the form of case studies, written reports, videos, role-playing activities, podcasts, or any other medium that effectively communicates the students’ ideas. Teachers are responsible for creating project briefs and monitoring team progress with regular updates and check-ins.
Projects will be evaluated based on group and individual contributions, as well as the presentation and subsequent Q&A session, highlighting the importance of both collective and personal efforts in achieving project objectives.
A significant portion of the grade, 20%, is determined by students’ engagement and participation in class, reflecting the value placed on active involvement and contribution to the learning environment.
