centre for entrepreneurial learning

FLUX 09 6 – 8th April 09. Glyndŵr University students from Computing, Art & Design and Media competed in Flux 09 amongst 30 other University teams over three days at Plymouth University. The panel of experts were very impressed with our students who had just one hour to come up with a global business idea. The students presented ‘Indie Sim’ – a new type of sim card for mobile phones allowing users to receive specific marketing based on the user’s interests and location. The students had only five minutes to pitch their idea in front of a panel of 12 judges and six other university teams. Judith Alexander, Zone Manager accompanied the students on the trip and spoke to some of the experts who thought the idea was very viable and could be taken further. Well done Gareth Williams, Steve Dwight, Sriharsha Kandikattu, Ian Lee, Martyn Eker & Daniel Groom. Staff within the Centre for Entrepreneurial Learning are trained facilitators in FLUX, it is an excellent tool to embed enterprise and entrepreneurship into the curriculum.

Ethics and Copyright Finals

The idea here is to highlight the cut /copy and poor quality images that pirates and bootleggers produce.

so when you are at a market stall and you see these bootleg dvds with stretched images like they have been photocopied is just not cool.

teh idea with the posters was to go one step further so the actual pirate fim was in teh cinema so like teh film companies have just given up and instead of making expensive hollywood movies they just make the pirated style from teh outset.

the message is that this will happen if we dont all combat piracy and dont fund them.

 

what do you think?
