Schedule:

  • 1. Meeting: discuss organizational topics
  • 2. Meeting: everybody presents a project idea and we discuss them
  • 3. Meeting: we will form teams for 3-4 participants to work on the selected project ideas from the previous meeting

These four meetings will happen during the summer semester and will be scheduled in agreement with the participants. The actual implementation will happen during the next fall break and we will have weekly meetings during that time.
