For about 1 week, they experienced new atmosphere in learning and teaching process. Well, not only knowledge, but also leadership and cross culture understanding were gained through this program.

On the first day of lecturing session, they learned and practiced on Data Analysis using Tableau and Python, delivered by Dr. Munir. On the next day, they were exposed on Game Development using Scratch, by Dr. Mas Idayu. They were so enthusiast to learn as well as practice to make their own game. On the last day of lecturing session they were introduced to Drone Activation using Drone Blocks by Dr. Asmiza.
