Three Level 5 Business Studies students from Sheffield Hallam University travelled to Botswana to take part in a Peer Assisted Learning project. After taking in the sights with a hike up Kgale Hill and a city tour, the students, Joe Blaney, Sophie Plant and Ted Blackburne-Maze, started on Monday 4th February by meeting the Botswana Accountancy College staff.
The busy week involved attending various BAC lectures, including Contemporary Issues in International Business, and Managing Business Processes & Information in a Global Context. The students also enjoyed trips to the Arts Gallery, Gabane Pottery and a fantastic opportunity to tour the Mokolodi Game Reserve.
The visit was very fruitful to both the visiting SHU students and Level 5 & 6 BAC Business Management students. The students participated in class and mingled together, ensuring an exchange of knowledge and experience from both sides. Furthermore, the SHU students made a remarkable contribution when sharing their knowledge with the BAC class on the following issues:
This was a very successful student exchange programme, with lots of knowledge and experience gained. We hope there are many more trips to come!
