In order to empower students we must make them be aware of the networks that are available to them, whether they local, national or global, and give them that confidence to try things and to know that it’s okay for something not to work and how to get back from that.
One of the big issues we always have now in design courses is have you built in enough risk into the projects? have you built in the fact that if a project fails, there is a very valid learning experience within that failure? have you built that in? Or is it the case that you don’t get the credits, the weighting, etc, etc.
