Design thinking is people-centered problem solving.

mash-up

• engineering everywhere
• genius hour / 20% time project
• x-based learning - project, problem, inquiry
• design thinking
• maker, diy
• personal connection

Outline

• introduction - big picture
• people-centered problems, solutions ? topics, engineering challenges ? users
• learning outcomes, deliverables
• process - framework - steps, tracking, reporting
• questions - how to formulate, interview, collect information, research
• MoVe - Moment of Visible empathy, HMW
• prototype - hands-on, show not tell, communicate ideas, iterate - fail 3x so statistically significant
• review, give / receive feedback, constructive criticism
• story - who is the user, what are their needs, why does it matter to the user, how I designed a solution, what is it
• learning literacies - find, use, protect, solve, make, share

• individual - 3 minutes - making toast
• pair - 5 minutes each - designer = kids, user - other kid
• 20 minutes - group, without talking
• n-week project - "engineering for good" - engineering challenges, school, pet safety

Process

• ipads
• chart / outline, checkpoints to guide steps
• data collection - interview questions, record replies
• prototype - drawings, pictures, video
• reviews - areas of interest, feedback - notes, rubrics
