Participants
The learners were divided into multidisciplinary and transnational groups of 3-4 (total of 17 students). Suggested group size is 3 learners to ensure a range of knowledge and skills.
The 5 teachers from UAL-LCF had a background in interaction design, physical computing, fashion design, entrepreneurship and innovation.
Participating learners (all from MA level programmes) presented a range of expertise, from fashion and textile design, design for the fashion systen and sustainability.
Additional staff included external speakers from academia and industry, also acting as mentors.

Feedback
"It really helped me understand how this technology can be used and how varied the design solutions can be, based on very similar technologies."
"This workshop is one of my best experiences during my Master's program. It broadened my horizons and I learned a lot. I am sure it will have a significant effect on my next career decision."
