Specialist skills | ✔ Intercultural skills | ✔ Communication skills | ✔ Critical thinking skills | Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
1) Choose SDGs targets for group work and decide group members.
2) Collect information on selected SDGs target and the status of its implementation in your country and share the information with other group members, and discuss features, similarities and differences among the countries in the implementation status of SDGs.
3) Determine a social issue related to your group’s selected SDGs target.
4) Collect relevant information and develop “prototype idea and its implementation plan”, or “process idea and sample prototype” that reflects group members’ ideas and viewpoints in the individual countries.
5) Create and develop “Prototype” or “process idea”. (If you focus on Prototype idea, work on details. if you focus on Process idea, your prototype can be an initial sample)
