"The Clearleft team helped the UX/UI design students across multiple sessions on a live competition brief. We gave presentations and ran design reviews and interactive workshops on techniques and theory – all of which helped the students progress their projects. The students were engaged, and enthusiastic and worked across a range of interesting ideas."
