It begins with a problem and some empathy - Using technology to promote design thinking in your STEM classrooms
Thursday February 6, 2025 9:00am - 10:00am MST
ECC - Salon 05
What do Airbnb and UberEats have in common? They are both innovative examples of design thinking, an approach to solving problems that centres humans in its solutions! Integrating design thinking into the classroom has benefits for students and teachers! It can help promote collaboration and community input to come up with effective and creative solutions. More importantly, design thinking can influence minoritized students' engagement with STEM content and pursuit of a STEM career by considering the values, culture, and mindsets that shape their opportunities. In this session, you will get a chance to learn about (and play with) different types of technologies that can help your students build their confidence in design thinking by coding, building, testing and reflecting. For example, learn how Ozobots can be used to help with clean up, and how drones can help with water sampling in sensitive habitats.
