Abstract
In this paper literature examples of innoversity are reviewed and personal experience gained in innoversity is shared. Recent developments include e-learning and involving challenged people in activities over the quarantine. Relying on his empirical knowledge, the author provides useful methodological hints to leaders of interdisciplinary projects, where diversity is always present, and creative teamwork is mandatory. Diversity may be manyfold, including different expertise at different education levels, ethnic, cultural, and gender differences, which all need to be leveraged for successfully completing the undertaking within the timeline. Applying the cooperative methodology described in this paper, various projects may become successful, by providing a real-life example of how to get individuals to operate as a team, rather than being focused on outperforming each other. This paper represents an in extenso version of a preliminary publication in Academia Letters (https://www.academia.edu/45165100/Innoversity_Applied_to_a_Student_Team).
