Spring Term 2026 Kickoff
This session is part of the Introduction to Political Technology course at Newspeak House, open to faculty and fellowship candidates only.
This session marks the start of the spring term and is intended to help everyone reboot after the winter break.
We will introduce the Political Technology Awards project that you’ll be working on together this term: what is involved, how it connects to the broader goals of the programme, and discuss strategies for completing it successfully.
We will also start talking about the Prototype Module: what we mean by prototypes, how you’ll be supported to develop yours, and how they'll be assessed at the end of the year.
If you’re unable to attend this session, please let the Dean know as soon as possible so that a follow-up can be arranged to go through things with you at another time.
