    Q1: When thinking of design, how can we broaden the terminology & application beyond design thinking or graphic design? #EduAR
  • bethhill2829 - Moderator Nov 2 @ 9:42 PM EDT
    A1: Designing is more than "art", and I think sometimes we box the concept in. We must think big! #EduAR
  • NowakRo Nov 2 @ 9:43 PM EDT

      A4: When we consider design's purpose--to improve quality of life, contribute to surroundings, add value to someone, it becomes REAL. #EduAR

    Q5: How can we provide Ss w/ opportunities to design, implement, & reflect on work that leverages risk/failure as part of learning? #EduAR
  • TheTechRabbi Nov 2 @ 10:15 PM EDT
    One of my favorite ideas and drawings to date. Failure anyone? #EduAR
  • AmyBraswell726 Nov 2 @ 10:16 PM EDT
    A5 1st we must establish a family of learners that feel safe enough to fail and reflect together #EduAR
  • TheTechRabbi Nov 2 @ 10:16 PM EDT
    A5: Every innovation in history was the result of failures, some of them epic. Success comes from reflection. #EduAR

    @TheTechRabbi this is one of my favorite images! #EduAR

    Safe and supported. Doesn’t mean it’s always a thumbs up, but must respect and value that risk. #EduAR

    A5 Let students take the lead in learning. Failing is part of process, it's called learning. Leverage impact on Ss' lives. #eduAR

    A5: By being intentional with planning, building trust among our Ss and create a risk free environment that encourages Ss to try. #eduAR

    A3) These are DOK-3 & DOK-4 learning experiences. Ask Ss to go beyond the text, the teacher m, & themselves #EduAr

    A4) It provides Ss to demonstrate & communicate their learning authentically & personally #eduAr #nostandardizedtests

    A5: Failure doesn’t mean failing a math course. Failure needs to be part of a risk worth while. Still, failed class isn’t game over. #EduAR
  • maverikcrq Nov 2 @ 10:19 PM EDT
    A5) Failure is when we DON’T. Designers are successful or unsuccessful - but they keep going until they get it right #eduAr

    Q6: Ambiguity is uncomfortable. How can we use design to help Ss persevere when encountering open-ended & non-linear problems? #EduAR

    A6 Create comfort in ambiguity. Life is not about easy answers. What do we do when we are stuck, unsure? Give them skills, resilience #eduAR

    The real 🌎 isn’t linear. School needs to teach non-linear thinking & problem solving. It’s messy! It’s scary! It’s the 🔑 to success. #EduAR
  • TheTechRabbi Nov 2 @ 10:25 PM EDT
    Great thought! I share my “stuck” moments all the time w/ Ss. They need someone to show them that it happens and it can be overcome #EduAR

    A6:Intentionally plan 4 these types of problems. Ss can't learn 2 think critically if not put in situations where they must grapple. #EduAR
