CARC/EdTechTeam Summit 2017

Design Thinking is about believing we can make a difference, and having an intentional process in order to get to new, relevant solutions that create a positive impact. Design Thinking gives you faith in your creative abilities and a process for transforming difficult challenges into opportunities for design. Design thinking is human-centred, collaborative, optimistic, experimental and consistently takes those who embark on the journey to unknown places where they create meaningful unforeseen products. Although it has become avant garde in education Design Thinking has been successful in the world of design and business for ages. Participants in the Crash Course will learn what Design Thinking looks like, feels like, and sounds like in an educational context as we go through the 5 stages of the Design Process: Discovery, Interpretation, Ideation, Experimentation, and Evolution.
