Description
Design Thinking is a problem-solving process that involves five key steps: empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test. Join Lauren Boucher and Brian Whitson as they dive deep into steps one and two of the Design Thinking Process and explain how to develop a plan for utilizing effective problem-solving projects with students. Participants will also have an opportunity to access done-for-you templates and support materials to create their own content-specific learning experiences that they can immediately use with their students.
Objectives
Define steps one and two of the Design Thinking Process and explain how students can use them to solve problems and practice essential skills such as collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking. Expand the ability to teach empathy so that students have a deeper appreciation of people's emotional and physical needs and the way they see, understand, and interact with the world around them.
