Time to Invent
During this apprenticeship, students will learn about the Design Process. Each lesson will focus on a specific step in the Design Process and will provide students with an opportunity to implement that step. Throughout the apprenticeship, students will meet fictional clients who have hired them to solve various different problems using the Design Process. By the end of the apprenticeship, students will be able to independently use the Design Process to generate original ideas and build a product that suits a specific purpose. The apprenticeship will culminate with students working in pairs to independently implement the Design Process to solve a problem for a fictional WOW! client. Working with the Design Process will give students the tools to approach problems they encounter both in the classroom and in their daily lives.
