    Teaching methods and instruction

    This Seminar is intended to bring students into interaction with students fro Switzerland, Denmark, Spain, and Finland, and to have them work in cross-cultural teams during the Seminar week.

    The Seminar will take place at HES-SO University, Sierre, Switzerland, in May 2023.

    Every day of the week is dedicated to one country’s students presenting the work they have done at their home institution, and then teaching some of that work to the other students.

    Once the team has been assembled, it will discuss what device will be built in this year's seminar,

    After that has been discussed, much of the actual material consists of issue-based research into material available on the Internet regarding Arduinos, ESP32s, LORA devices, Raspberry Pis and other devices.

    The students will prepare educational material on the parts of the device to be built and will teach other students during the seminar how to build it.
