Meet an ASTRONAUT!

This exclusive session has been opened to McCusker Institute students - tthe opportunity to hear directly from Katherine Bennell-Pegg, 2026 Australian of the Year and the first professional astronaut to officially represent Australia.

The preparation for your Campus KNoT will be different, depending on what it is.

The suggested preparation is to "do your research" into the activity/event. For example, if you are going to see a guest speaker present, do a little background research, such as spending some time reading their latest work, finding out about them (ie wikipedia, etc), or listening to an interview with them.

The default completion task for a Campus KNOT is a short reflection.

This should be the equivalent of 1 page, and can include pictures (such as a photo of you attending, or a picture of an important slide).

We encourage you to reflect on the skill or knowledge that you developed through the activity, particularly how it might be useful or not in your creating social change repertoire.

A great prompt to reflect on is a question that you asked the presenter, or would have asked the presenter if there was time.
