The course includes an evaluation and synthesis of all the knowledge and experience gained. It inspires students to deepen their work with the topic in other projects or in their approach to them. It broadens the listener's understanding of contemporary issues in the presentation and application of their own projects. Emphasis is placed on the integrity of the project concept, including the title, supplementary texts. The project may take the form of an idea presentation or a mind map.
