Step into the shoes of a young inventor! In this hands-on class, students will learn how designers, engineers, and inventors create solutions by first understanding people’s needs. Through interviews, observation, brainstorming, and prototyping, we will explore the design thinking process and build creative solutions for real-world problems. By the end of the week, students will present a design that helps someone in their community.
