Situating the case study
This case study comes from the program “Graphic and Digital Media” at Arteveldehogeschool (Higher education). In the first year the students receive the course ‘Audio & Video’.

The theoretical introduction makes it difficult for students to navigate through the content, the success rates before were therefore also low because the content for students seemed to abstract.
