What is it about?

Since each student identifies a material they think suits a project management concept and presents it in class, they 'own' it as a personal experience. The material presented may be an article from a newspaper, magazine, journal, a picture, artifact, video or personal story. This encourages students to recognize projects as products of day-to-day experiences.

Our results indicate that as a teaching technique, 'prayer’ can be used to complement the traditional lecture method of content delivery and is a worthwhile technique for developing empowerment skills in graduates.
