Els participants enjoyen a dynamic atmosfère , treballen en grups en una inspiració d' environment i envien una energia amb la formació , que “ was fun ” i “ at the same time interesting ” . According a les seves avaluacions de la Summer School , “ t'ha fet true co-learning experience ” and all interactive activitats served the course's purposes . The students got “ good knowledge” and “t he training was pretty different from what I expected … it was better this way ” . In the same vein , it was pointed out that :

“ I found myslf being involved in all these tasks with molt more enthusiasm and willingness than I would expect from me . I wasn't just learning by listening but by participating” .

“I made a network of people that study and work in the sector ; learned about innovation approaches ; usen noves tools i expressen myself at the facilitation exercise”

Els participants beneficien no només de la seva interacció amb totes les seves butles de guiatge , inspiració , i backback esgota de trainers a la seva manera . En general, most students bade farewell a la Summer School s enthusiastic feelings and an appetite “to learn even more” .

It is also worth mentioning that two online courses included in the summer school's programme . El first one ( ex-ante ) serveix as introductory course to interactive innovation ia participants' assignment s'ex-post one serving as follow-up avaluation and networking event .

Nevertheless , certain possibilities per improvements of the forthcoming Summer School in Hohenheim the next summer were detected , implying the possibility to extend its duration . Per exemple, els participants' s'interessen amb AKIS suggests la provisió d'alguns detalls d'even en advance of the ( in-person ) curs. Addicionalment, durant la Summer School , més temps should be devoted to developing certain competencies , therefore relevant activities , and the field visit , while more breaks and outdoor activities can be included as well .
