Editor's Notes
- Five phases - this graphic has compiled several organizations’ approaches into one Avoids the issues associated with jumping straight to ideation. Imagine how this might be used with students: How might we design a system that makes dirty water clean (science)? How might we redesign the school dance to engage more students (student leadership)? How might we redesign our community to better meet the needs of new Canadians (social studies)? How might we reimagine nutrition break to get more students more active (phys ed & health)?
- Significant mindsets today: Embrace Ambiguity - Be okay with “outcome unknown.” This is very hard for teachers Empathy - Today, we are putting ourselves in the shoes of our students. We are committed to understanding how our students experience school, and will avoid making assumptions based on what we think we know. Embracing a beginner’s mindset here will be key - throw out everything you THINK you know. Iterate - Nothing is permanent. No solution will be THE answer, but each solution will be AN answer. Optimism - Expect that we will get where we need to today. Remain open. Be curious. Explore possibilities. Looking for POSSIBILITIES not the ONE RIGHT ANSWER. Nothing is considered permanent.
