Project Overview:
A COIL project was organized for PG students of Coventry University undertaking 7049EFA – Financial Statement Analysis with Hanson College where 21 students (12 from CU and 9 from Hanson College) were divided into two groups to analyse the financial statement of British Airlines and Air Canada.
Students in each group studied the statements using various analysis techniques and, using the PowerPoint slides, presented the financial position of both companies to represent the impact of covid. Interestingly enough, the students worked beyond expectations comparing the two companies with other leading airline companies within the industry in both countries and presented their findings. They enjoyed sharing their ideas and worked collaboratively overcoming various barriers such as different time zones and specific cultural dimensions.
Overall impact presents that 80% of students were satisfied with the COIL activity as it added to their skills such as critical thinking, team building attitude, confidence, time management, managing inter-cultural communication and enhancing prospective learning.
