Description

Just like sprints in track and field, Design Sprints are short projects that are structured to help students learn the steps in the Design Thinking Process. Join Lauren Boucher and Brian Whitson as they share the value of starting with Design Sprints when introducing Design Thinking, including best practices for implementing the framework with your 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

  1. Explain the value of starting with Design Sprints when introducing the Design Thinking Process to students.
  2. Design, adapt, and implement a Design Sprint framework to actively engage students and practice the steps of the Design Thinking Process.
