Student project template design and writing
Our company Riipen, has a web application in which educators match with companies to provide a project based learning opportunity for their students. Companies craft and create projects based on their real world company needs which would be great learning opportunities for the students. To help this process, Riipen also provide companies with project templates which they can use to get the ball rolling. These project templates are usually generic projects which could be applied to a specific company or a specific industry which then the company takes and updates and makes specific to their needs. We are currently in the process of trying to create even more project templates in which our companies would use to further provide more learning experiences for students. We would like help in crafting these project templates and who better to do it than the people who will benefit the most from the projects.
