  • MAKtweeter Jan 18 @ 8:11 PM EST
    A1: design thinking also signals that we are considering the end user in mind and how they interact with the “product” in the most optimal way #Globaledchat
    In reply to @hsingmaster, @dfcusa
  • AnnDickinson8 Jan 18 @ 8:11 PM EST

  • dfcusa Jan 18 @ 8:12 PM EST
    #globaledchat - it's not often that people view themselves as designers, but we actually are. Think about every choice you make from prepping your breakfast to picking out your clothes. It all follows d.thinking principals. We'll get more into this!
  • kimmykcollins Jan 18 @ 8:12 PM EST
    Whole process #globaledchat Autocorrect 🤦🏻‍♀️

    In reply to @MAKtweeter, @dfcusa
  • mexusmx Jan 18 @ 8:12 PM EST
    A1: DT is an approach to learning that is built on empathy, creativity and problem-solving. Certainly qualities I try to embody as a school leader! #globaledchat
  • AcademyofEd Jan 18 @ 8:12 PM EST
    A1) Design thinking is all about the planning aspect before a project. Students should ask what are the tools, skills, materials needed to make us successful? #Globaledchat
  • Dale_Chu Jan 18 @ 8:12 PM EST
    HAPPENING NOW: @hsingmaster moderating a discussion on design thinking. Follow along at #GlobalEdChat! @dfcusa

  • dfcusa Jan 18 @ 8:13 PM EST
    Q2.The first stage of design thinking is “feel” –students mustunderstand the issues they care https://t.co/tegnW7Wstz do you link local issues to global challengesin your classroom? #globaledchat

  • ligayabeebe Jan 18 @ 8:14 PM EST
    A1. Design thinking is thinking about user experience first, and working backwards from there. @hsingmaster said she thought of it as companion to project management. I agree, and think about it also as a companion to student-centered learning #globaledchat
  • hsingmaster - Moderator Jan 18 @ 8:14 PM EST

  • mrslewitt Jan 18 @ 8:14 PM EST
    A2 Helping students understand the situations happening locally and working through their emotions about those situations. Creating opportunities for students to take action or get involved! #globaledchat
  • hsingmaster - Moderator Jan 18 @ 8:15 PM EST
    A2: The Feel stage is a great opportunity to use the Question Formulation Technique we learned about last week. Students can brainstorm questions about local problems and their global connections: https://t.co/gHMf6u1zxS #globaledchat @RightQuestion #QFT

    I just looked it up too! 😊 Learning every day #globaledchat
    In reply to @mrslewitt
  • klburkinshaw1 Jan 18 @ 8:15 PM EST
    A1 It also can apply to writing. Having an outline, researching, #Globaledchat
  • MAKtweeter Jan 18 @ 8:15 PM EST
    I appreciate this answer Ryan - also signals “planning our approach/thought” - more intentional and deliberate problem solving. In an age of quick google researched answers, this is important. #globaledchat
    In reply to @AcademyofEd
  • stephwurking Jan 18 @ 8:15 PM EST
    Is that Design thinking or just automatized behavior? We often do these things without even giving them much thought. #Globaledchat
    In reply to @dfcusa
  • klburkinshaw1 Jan 18 @ 8:15 PM EST
    Definitely #Globaledchat
    In reply to @mrslewitt
  • mrslewitt Jan 18 @ 8:15 PM EST
    Yes! What’s life about if not learning?! #globaledchat
    In reply to @MissWilson2nd
  • PhilipWagener Jan 18 @ 8:16 PM EST
    A1) To me, Design Thinking is crafting an experience that invokes feeling or thought, while on the learning journey. #globaledchat
  • jenn_k_n Jan 18 @ 8:16 PM EST
    A2: We work with our SS to help them research and become experts on the SGDs, then take that to a local actionable level #globaledchat
  • AnnDickinson8 Jan 18 @ 8:16 PM EST
    Q2 Kids brainstorming problems important to them is the first key step. It creates buy in and interest. #GlobalEdChat
  • mexusmx Jan 18 @ 8:17 PM EST
    Good question. My #oneword2018 is #intentional so I'm curious to see what others think about this topic. #Globaledchat
    In reply to @stephwurking, @dfcusa
  • seanrussell311 Jan 18 @ 8:17 PM EST
    A2. Making the issues relevant to the student's lives is the first step I take. #globaledchat
  • AcademyofEd Jan 18 @ 8:17 PM EST
    A2) students need to understand themselves before thinking globally. They should start off with projects that impact their immediate community then they work towards global issues. #Globaledchat
  • hsingmaster - Moderator Jan 18 @ 8:17 PM EST
    Yes - so important for getting students engaged in their learning! #globaledchat
    In reply to @AnnDickinson8
  • klburkinshaw1 Jan 18 @ 8:17 PM EST
    I agree #globaledchat
    In reply to @AcademyofEd
  • dfcusa Jan 18 @ 8:17 PM EST
    #globaledchat @stephwurking it's not an automatized behavior. It's a skill that needs to be cultivated and practiced. People sometimes need a framework to make it more intentional.
    In reply to @stephwurking, @stephwurking
  • stephwurking Jan 18 @ 8:18 PM EST
    A2: First and foremost, I get students to focus on the local issues - what affects them and is significant to them. By sharing with each other, they are able to see common ground and any possible global nature in these issues. #Globaledchat
    • hsingmaster - Moderator Jan 18 @ 8:14 PM EST
      Q2. The first stage of design thinking is “feel” – students must understand the issues they care about. How do you link local issues to global challenges in your classroom? #globaledchat
  • Anamaria_Knight Jan 18 @ 8:18 PM EST
    A1: DT starts with connection. If you truly connect, you feel WITH someone. The rest simply follows from that. #globaledchat
  • MAKtweeter Jan 18 @ 8:18 PM EST
    A2: all issues have a global and local dimension and context to add meaning - all tied together. Students need to feel vested in the “why is this far off issue important to my neighborhood or to me” #Globaledchat
    In reply to @hsingmaster
  • MissWilson2nd Jan 18 @ 8:18 PM EST
    A2: (If I'm understanding this correctly) Allowing students to present the challenges/issues and move forward from there. Even at a young age, giving them a voice means so much! #globaledchat
  • mexusmx Jan 18 @ 8:18 PM EST
    "user experience" is such a relevant concept to our Ss and is worth a good deal of reflection. How can we think about the user experience in other areas of school? #relevance #Globaledchat
    • ligayabeebe Jan 18 @ 8:14 PM EST
      A1. Design thinking is thinking about user experience first, and working backwards from there. @hsingmaster said she thought of it as companion to project management. I agree, and think about it also as a companion to student-centered learning #globaledchat
  • kimmykcollins Jan 18 @ 8:18 PM EST
    A2 Brainstorming ideas and events that are important to Jen and then taking it outside our 4 walls and connect with others! Thinking of literature, social studies, science.... just brainstorming! #globaledchat
  • klburkinshaw1 Jan 18 @ 8:19 PM EST
    So true, that's what I try to do with my characters and who my audience will be #Globaledchat
    In reply to @Anamaria_Knight
  • CDMdreamers Jan 18 @ 8:19 PM EST
    #globaledchat A2: Just today we had Gd5 Ss discuss clean water issues globally, & view news stories nationally & then locally. Empathy is the beg, mid, and end of DT.
  • ligayabeebe Jan 18 @ 8:19 PM EST
    Q2. iEARN projects connect students around the globe, where students tackle local issues and collaborate with their international peers. All iEARN projects address a global challenge as they are all linked to the #SDGs. #globaledchat
  • AnnDickinson8 Jan 18 @ 8:19 PM EST
    Q2 Interactions with community members often leads to kids thinking of problems in multiple ways which is the first step in creating global views #GlobalEdChat
  • dfcusa Jan 18 @ 8:20 PM EST
    Q3:The second stage of design thinking is “Imagine”–students brainstorm possible solutions to solve the problem. What approaches do you use to empower the students you work withso they feel they can make a difference?#globaledchat

    A2) In order to invoke emotion, students must be able to discover, question, and process exposure to human conditions. Students must own the process for it to work. #globaledchat

    Yes! #globaledchat
    In reply to @MissWilson2nd
  • stephwurking Jan 18 @ 8:21 PM EST
    Spot on, Ryan! The next step is always catering for opportunities to exchange ideas with people in other locations. The question should be "what's similar and how can we help each other"? #Globaledchat
    In reply to @AcademyofEd

  • stephwurking Jan 18 @ 8:22 PM EST
  • Anamaria_Knight Jan 18 @ 8:22 PM EST
    Optimism is key here, so true! And so is courage. DT requires one to constantly question one's assumptions and beliefs. To unlearn things, learn something new and keep trying something different. #Globaledchat
    • mrslewitt Jan 18 @ 8:12 PM EST
      A1 Not gonna lie.. had to look that up! #BT I've already learned something new tonight! Design thinking looks like a way to logically go about challenges in an optimistic way! #globaledchat

    Bugger, I'm late! Sorry! Pip from NZ here. Been busy catching up on our PM announcing she's having a baby. Very cool news. Will now get up to speed with #globaledchat
  • mrslewitt Jan 18 @ 8:23 PM EST
    A3 I think using @PosProject to help Ss see that their actions impact others. Teaching them social/emotional curriculum with their actions! Allowing Ss the flexibility to work from their heart and feel they are making a difference towards something they care about! #globaledchat
  • CDMdreamers Jan 18 @ 8:23 PM EST
    #globaledchat A3 Before we imagine we make sure to deeply understand the issue and related content through research and learning experiences, followed by crafting needs statements. Before How, we spend time on the Who, What & Why.
  • AcademyofEd Jan 18 @ 8:23 PM EST
    A3) Students should be challenged with real world problems they can tackle. The energy crisis, the amount of trash in our oceans, global warming are some great examples. When it is relevant, it is meaningful #Globaledchat
  • stephwurking Jan 18 @ 8:23 PM EST
    A3 - By showing them examples of students like themselves who are already being the difference in their contexts. #globaledchat

  • ligayabeebe Jan 18 @ 8:23 PM EST
    yes, great point. Thinking about "user experience" as it relates to all "stakeholders" (parents, teachers, staff) in a school community could be useful. #Globaledchat
    In reply to @mexusmx
  • MsEhuber Jan 18 @ 8:24 PM EST
    A3 #globaledchat I try to empower them by having them discover a big concept on their own. Learning by inquiry.

    In reply to @piptinning
  • mexusmx Jan 18 @ 8:24 PM EST
    A3: Kids need to be encouraged to dream big! Let's be sure that we are not stifling the creativity and out-of-the-box thinking of the next generation of problem-solvers! #globaledchat
  • Anamaria_Knight Jan 18 @ 8:24 PM EST
    A2: Feeling with another is a tricky one because it requires courage and trust in oneself. Trust that feeling with the another won't break us, but make us stronger. Once we learn that, the local-global connections are much more likely to happen. #globaledchat
  • dfcusa Jan 18 @ 8:25 PM EST
    It's key that students engage multiple people to collect multiple perspectives that can help inform a solution #globaledchat

    A3: @jhu_cbid today, students engaged in a #virtualexchange hackathon (part of @StevensInit) to tackle public health challenges for refugees. Students were trusted and turned loose and trusted to work w peers at @AUB_Lebanon. Amazing ideas! #globaledchat
    In reply to @hsingmaster, @jhu_cbid, @StevensInit, @AUB_Lebanon
  • MissWilson2nd Jan 18 @ 8:25 PM EST
    A3: Is it cliché to say "believing in them"... when your students know that you care about them and you provide them the support they need to accept failure along with success, I think they'll be empowered all on their own #globaledchat

    In the feel stage, what's key is that we take students out of their comfort zone and challenge their assumptions about what they know and think is true about the community they are trying to impact - this all the feel stage of Design for Change #globaledchat

    The design thinking process, in fact, normalizes failures so that's not a big deal. It becomes essentially part of any good process to solve problems #globaledchat

    A3 Authentic interactions with community members increases the kids confidence that they can solve the problems. #GlobalEdChat

  • ligayabeebe Jan 18 @ 8:28 PM EST
    Q3. Brainstorming is so powerful. Many Ss (and adults!) have an instinct to shut down good ideas before they can develop. The first step to being able to "imagine" possible solutions might be build a safe space, so Ss can share bravely #globaledchat

    Dead right. Kids who get to me after eight years of failure are demoralised and broken...and bracing for up to another five years of it. Those kids need tools for how not to BE a failure. There are fine lines everywhere #globaledchat

    That's right. We try to focus Ss on impacting their local community - seeing the change they cause happen around them reinforces the experience so much more. We had 3 grds in Dallas shut down a drug house that they saw on their way to school every day = huge impact #globaledchat

    A7: I have a lot of thinking to do, as design thinking is something new to me tonight. Happy to go do some research and make decisions for my classroom #globaledchat
  • stephwurking Jan 18 @ 8:52 PM EST
    And when that happens we can literally see students' eyes light up and jaws drop in awe at how they have something in common with someone they don't know. #Globaledchat

    Framing failure as learning and changing course is essential. It’s not to be feared and it’s not bad. What needs to happen now? Is the question to be asked after failure. #GlobalEdChat

    A3: I continuously remind my SS that they are great & are change agents. I require that they develop solutions to conflicts within lessons (challenges w/ content) & also through social emotional development. I remind them to use their 🗣. #globaledchat
  • Harris_J27 Jan 18 @ 8:53 PM EST
    A3: I would love to provide more opportunities that allow them to further develop what their minds imagine. Just getting my students to visit the “Land of imagination” would be awesome. I want them to know games they play began in a mind. #globaledchat

    Q6. iEARN's Teachers Guide to On-Line Collaboration & Global Projects. https://t.co/c4ojtPLAq9 Though not discussing "Design Thinking" per se, there is a lot of overlap re: project-based learning and collaborating w/global peers (building empathy :) . #globaledchat

    I taught freshmen at one school who came to me already broken and defeated. Many just showed up every few weeks because they were forced to. Working them through the "failures" and helping them to view it in a different light is essential. #globaledchat

    @ToddShriver #globaledchat - how open are you and your students to connecting with DFC students from around the globe? Would love to help set up a chat session - I think it could be a great exchange!

    I think kids who have really low self esteem would find the idea of 'celebrating' failure ludicrous. I prefer the idea of facing your f ups and figuring out what next. I don't share my screw ups until I have a contingency plan lol #globaledchat
