“To acquire knowledge, one must study; but to acquire wisdom, one must observe.”  - Marilyn Vos Savant 

Rightly, observation is an essential practice that seems to be disregarded in our daily interactions. We are so focused on our self that the problems surrounding us only magnify over time.  

Observation is critical. It is when you observe, that you understand what a certain thing entails; you grasp it from all angles, perspectives and viewpoints. 

Think you have the skills to be the next big observer?  

Well, we’ve set up an enthralling opportunity for you! 

We would like to invite you to volunteer and observe students for a week.  

In a nutshell, we would like you to: 

• Collect insights on their life on campus and in the dorms 
• Capture their learning journey in classes 
• Gather their thoughts about our current education system  
• Document views about their future and aspirations. 

You can map this journey through many creative outlets such as a video, a report, interviews, the possibilities are endless. 

And to top it all off, the best documented observations will be presented with exciting prizes and awards.  

What are you waiting for? If you think you have what it takes to be the next big observer then send us a copy of your CV along with a 2 minute video outlining why you want to be an observer and how you would document the journey to expo2020@uaeu.ac.ae.
