Design Learning Challenge Working Session In the afternoon, entrepreneurs, designer practitioners, and college design students joined the K-12 teachers for the challenge portion of the event. During this time, participants rolled up their sleeves to coach and mentor high students who had been hard at work to prepare for these final two steps of the Jobs 2050 Design Learning Challenge. To kick-off the afternoon, teams of students engaged in a "speed dating" session with 3 minutes to pitch their ideas and gain initial feedback from entrepreneurs, design professionals, college students, and K-12 teachers. During the remainder of the day, students refined their plan of action, produced
visualizations of their ideas, prototyped a final design concept, and presented to the jury panel. We wrapped up the day with an open dialogue and reflection session moderated by Garfield Gini-Newman and then celebrated the efforts of all challenge participants and winners. |
