See more photos of this event. - Creation of student Design Team after school program to further the work at the school
An example of application: Teachers applied Design Thinking principles to project-based learning initiatives including the Cleveland Metropolitan School District Rock Your World With STEAM program at the Rock and Roll of Hall of Fame and Museum and the Great Lakes Science Center.

Our design-based process provides a reliable way for individuals and groups to move from talking about innovation to actually doing it.
