This course is highly student-centred. Students will get opportunities to share knowledge, ask questions and have paired discussions. 
Teaching styles and techniques include time-paired-share, discovery learning, lecturing, class discussions, video presentation and animation. 

No prior knowledge is needed, and although the lesson builds content, students can join at any point through the lesson, as lesson design does not test for prior learning.
