Everything I wanted to know about the Leandro Case is found here. If you want to know further information about the educational process in the college institution, then here it is with a full description of what you should have expected of the case. I hope that the case will influence the learning process greatly and every participant would find something to learn for the future. Thanks for the video. It was great to know about the education matters first hand in a form of an interview.
