    Q1 - How is design thinking used in elementary classrooms? #CreateEdu
    In reply to @AdobeEdu
  • heza Oct 25 @ 6:36 PM EDT
    A1: How can I encourage teachers to use design thinking in their classrooms? How can I have them experience the process in a short time? #createedu
  • MsClaraGalan Oct 25 @ 6:37 PM EDT

    A1: Life and learning can and should - whenever possible - be centered around design. There are so many moving parts in the classroom before we get to today’s transformative media creation tools. Need to think design before tactics. #CreateEdu
  • husslington Oct 25 @ 6:39 PM EDT
    think i’m supposed to be answering questions, but i’m gonna ask some for educators who teach or otherwise utilize design: what impact are you seeing? can you share examples of student/colleague/your own work process/products? what challenges are you running into? #CreateEdu
  • AdobeEdu - Moderator Oct 25 @ 6:42 PM EDT
    Q2: How have you used design in K-12 contexts? What is design's potential for advancing K-12 education? #CreateEdu
  • heza Oct 25 @ 6:43 PM EDT
    So true. I used to ask my students to make things without teaching them about design. After years of disappointing products, I learned my lesson. Take time to teach good design! #createedu

  • husslington Oct 25 @ 6:43 PM EDT
    visited an elementary classroom recently and saw #designthinking being used as a platform for students to study the environment #CreateEdu
    In reply to @NgP1_tech, @AdobeEdu
  • heza Oct 25 @ 6:44 PM EDT
    The impact I see are higher quality products and higher level thinking behind the design of those products. The challenge for me personally is that I sometimes try to tackle too much and confuse the students. #createedu
    In reply to @husslington
  • NgP1_tech Oct 25 @ 6:45 PM EDT
    A2 - We are using design thinking with the focus on technology as a foundation to deliver Project Based Learning skills and training T's. Our goal includes performance assessment training, as well as blended and other personalized learning strategies. #CreateEdu

    they identified elements of the natural environment on campus + used design process to identify ways they could be good stewards #CreateEdu
    In reply to @NgP1_tech, @AdobeEdu
  • husslington Oct 25 @ 6:46 PM EDT
    yes! one of the most valuable lessons for me as an educator has been that good design is as much about what you keep out as what you let in. #CreateEdu

    Hi everyone! Joining in a bit late today but excited to follow along with #createedu :)
  • heza Oct 25 @ 6:47 PM EDT
    A2: I've used a mini version of design thinking in teacher PDs tackle problems. We also used it to have students redesign our library spaces. #createedu
  • spirrison - Moderator Oct 25 @ 6:47 PM EDT
    A2: Having observed/collaborated with hundreds of K-12 teachers on the role of creativity/innovation in the classroom, a recurring theme is humility. New tools level the playing field in many respects. We need to give our selves space to transform our practice #createedu
  • husslington Oct 25 @ 6:48 PM EDT
    the @k12lab is focused on utilizing design to obliterate opportunity gaps in elementary + secondary education. we do this by designing new, more equitable models + sharing design approaches with students + educators. #CreateEdu
  • heza Oct 25 @ 6:48 PM EDT
    Hi Monica! #createedu

    Q3: What are examples of engaging students as designers of their own education? #CreateEdu
  • jroach4522 Oct 25 @ 6:49 PM EDT
    RT ClassTechTips "Hi everyone! Joining in a bit late today but excited to follow along with #createedu :)"
  • heza Oct 25 @ 6:50 PM EDT
    I'd love to hear more about the models. I think there's a lot we can and should do to close several equity and opportunity gaps in our schools. #createedu
    In reply to @husslington, @k12lab
  • husslington Oct 25 @ 6:50 PM EDT
    to answer your first question, we’d have to know more about *why* you want them to use design thinking. for the second question, there are some intro exercise resources on our site: https://t.co/CmP8B3Kgwt #CreateEdu

  • husslington Oct 25 @ 6:53 PM EDT
    HUMILITY. so important as an educator/human. so under-appreciated (maybe because people who value it are humble and don’t make a lot of noise about it?). #CreateEdu

    A3 Have students design their learning spaces. Or have students use design to solve a real problem in their communities. #createedu
  • TheresaShadrix Oct 25 @ 6:53 PM EDT
    A2: I was one of 10 @TeachersGuild Fellows last year and I experimented #DesignThinking w/ my Graphic Design students. It was amazing! This year, I’m at a new school and focused more on mindsets, empathy, and curiousity, not just a process. #CreateEdu

    A3: I observe students at @AGBellSchool in Chicago design their own learning experiences through empathy-based projects, including those devoted to #UNSDGs #createedu
  • AdobeEdu - Moderator Oct 25 @ 6:55 PM EDT
    Q4: What are the key mindsets for designers to have? Are they important for K-12 students and educators? #CreateEdu
  • husslington Oct 25 @ 6:55 PM EDT
    a few years ago, when i worked at @BIFsxl we worked with a group of high school students to design a public high school in Providence @360_highschool @pvdschools https://t.co/b6Pcj252Ho #CreateEdu
  • ericdalio Oct 25 @ 6:56 PM EDT
    A3 At my HS in #musiced we work with our students to design curriculum, create, compose, arrange, and improvise all music in our program. #CreateEdu
  • NgP1_tech Oct 25 @ 6:57 PM EDT
    A3 - @roosevelt_SF participated in Dreamforce TrailBlazer Challenge with other middle schools from SF & Oakland, where the focus was on sustainability in communities and cities. There were some great S's ideas & pitches! #RMStrojans #CreateEdu

    What new media creation, aggregation and interpretation tools really show us is that knowledge is no longer proprietary. Wisdom always will be. Have the humility to recognize this, then apply a life of learning into putting this potential into context. #CreateEdu

    A4: As an educator, I cling to @TeachersGuild mindsets: Courageous, Collaborative, Experimental, Empathetic, Equity, and Optimistic. #CreateEdu https://t.co/MY3sdndlrb
  • husslington Oct 25 @ 6:58 PM EDT
    you might dig the work our colleagues at the @stanforddschool have been doing on *design abilities* here’s an article by @snowflyzone about the abilities: https://t.co/3MPcLaKelW #CreateEdu
