Content

This course functions as a 'mirror capstone' of year 1, by having students reflect on what they have learned this year, how they learn (metacognitive skills), the state of the industry (e.g. the offered guest lectures), and what ambitions they have for the future, relating to the programme's learning outcomes. They will create a showcase portfolio to present themselves to the industry and they make the first steps in expanding their network by collecting feedback on their portfolio. 

Their skill to create products that customers want is improved by learning about Value Proposition Design and then apply it to themselves as final step in describing the value proposition of one of their prototypes made this year, how they added value in their project groups this year, and what value they can and want to offer in the future (self-branding) related to their upcoming internship. 

The course is assessed via a hand-in of a showcase portfolio and a presentation, in which among other their personal value proposition is presented.
