The First Year Challenge is a multimedia assignment designed to introduce first year undergraduates to independent research and to academic collaboration as a prelude to their empirically-focused first year studies.

Small groups of students were assigned a specific meeting point in Central London. In their groups they were asked to produce a 3-minute multimedia clip relating to their meeting point and the theme ‘Capitalism, Growth and Inequality’, discussed in Unit 1 of The Economy, the free online textbook produced by CORE Econ.

The First Year Challenge promotes relationship-building among our large cohort which includes students from around the world and across the UK and highlights the diverse skills this varied study body brings to the table.

Watch the winning submissions below.
