The operations will be based on case study scenarios and (simulation) activities designed for student-led workshops. Based on these activities, each student will indicate in the table below what learning outcome (s) they have achieved during the session and describe how these learning outcome(s) were achieved. Students will also indicate what action they took, what went well and what did not go well. This must include a reflection of what they would do differently/better in the future and any lessons they have learned from the session/experience.
