LIFE ACADEMY is an interactive student introduction project developed for NHL Stenden. Moving to a new city to begin your studies can be overwhelming, especially for international students who are also discovering a new country and culture. Adjusting to a different environment, finding your way around and getting to know student life can add unnecessary stress to an otherwise exciting experience. To make this transition easier, my team and I developed Life Academy, an interactive YouTube video series that puts prospective students in the shoes of a newcomer to Leeuwarden. Through engaging videos and interactive choices, students could explore NHL Stenden, discover the city and get a taste of life in the Netherlands before their studies even began.
