Moving on from yesterday's discussion panels, all students will have answers to most of their questions. The page layout follows the format like how we discussed yesterday on the type of information that builds up into asking a certain question. Answers from the panel is noted down and analysed to give our own opinion backed up by the information/ statistics we found on journals/ publication or reports.

Day 9 is production production and production day! Information gathered from the afternoon discussion panel session will be put down into paper for the final publication. Afternoon will be off to compensate Wednesday afternoon's event.

Answers from the panelists earlier this afternoon will be reviewed and put down on paper for the final publication. This is a rough guide on how students are able to analyse the answers and have their own opinion supported by the documents they have read throughout these two weeks.

We invited Mark Percival (architect), Graham Smith (architect), Dr Angela Connelly (academiia), Penny Christoforou (6th year student) and Aaron Underhill (5th year student) to be on our panel for our event today. It ran smoothly with complications with the microphones but overall the discussion is organic while everyone have new inputs on viewing BREXIT towards the architecture field . Discussion ranges from what would happen if the EU research funding is cut off in the academic field to how woulde BREXIT affect the chances of employment towards the EU students.

Tomorrow is the day! Here is the plan for tomorrow, the only change is that we will have a slightly early lunch so that we can we will have time to prepare for the discussion panels. Chairs, microphones, camera set-up etc needs to be done before the start of the discussion panel. We will meet in CH711 first then move to CH312 for the event.

The Architectural Educational group further researched on the possible scenarios of the four BREXIT deals if it happens. Questions for the discussion panels are derived from here to form a narrative in the final publication.

This is a general overview of the BREXIT inforgraphic poster for the Architectural Educational sector. A basic demographic exercise is performed to understand the national statistics of architecture education in the UK

Final infographic poster is done for architectural industry and educational sector. These posters will be included into the final publication and questions are distributed among the students for tomorrow's discussion panel. Posters will be uploaded on the next few posts

Good work coming up with critical questions today! Tomorrow will be all about production towards our discussion panel on Wednesday. We will also mention the expected roles each and one of you to play on that day which includes video documenting, asking questions if no one initiates, taking photographs and more. Tomorrow, same place, same time (don't be late!) see you there

Questions are formed for the impact of BREXIT towards both architectural industry and academic fields. These are then sent to the panelist to prepare them for similar questions to be asked that day. These questions are in preparation for that day itself to ask if no one initiates.

We are happy to announce our panelist for the discussion panel this coming Wednesday! The discussion panel will mainly focusing on post-BREXIT scenarios for the academic and practicing scene. Event will be held at Chatham Building CH312, 2.30pm-4pm. See you there!

The main thing about Day 6 is to produce posters for what we've learnt on the education and industry sector in a post-BREXIT era and paste it around the school to campaign for the discussion panel on Wednesday. Questions should be presented, filtered and discussed as a group for Wednesday as well.

Dr Angela Connelly, the last speaker of the day, came in to give her insight on the possible sustainability outcome of BREXIT towards the field of academia that she and her fellow research partners are currently in. She emphasis on the importance of European funding and knowledge network in order for research in universities in the UK to move forward. What would the future for academics be like if we lost this connection with the EU?

This is the plan for tomorrow! Now that we have information from all out guest speakers, we will need to put this information into production towards our final publication. Please bring your laptop, laptop chargers and sketchbook to get ready for the last day of week 1.

Good work engaging with guest speakers today. 10AM Kantorowich Library. See you there!

We also visited the Special Collection in MMU Library to get inspiration for designing posters to convey our information that we researched on the previous sessions for final publication.

Paul Iddon, Vice President of the Manchester Society of Architects, came in in the morning as a guest speaker to give his insights on Brexit and share his professional experience to all of us focusing on being resilience in light of recession, in this case Brexit. He also talked about role of architects and typical architects' character that shapes the industry and how we can act otherwise. We are very grateful that Paul could grace our event and we look forward to more future collaboration.

After much discussion, here is our final BREXIT discussion poster happening next Wednesday! Do join us if you are concern about the architecture industry and what the future of this field is going to impact all of us!
