Today, Team Awesome spent some more time with our fantastics DPE team. Our focus today was around Ideation: the process of coming up with ideas and making them stick. We practiced generating ideas, building connections between them and refining our best suggestions into a rough prototype of our idea. Today’s prompt was to think about relationships between objects. Students were given a set of random objects (pegs, cups, leaves, etc) and then brainstormed ways to connect the objects, and created interesting prototypes that demonstrated their thinking. We are all looking forward to working with DPE again in the future, especially as we settle into the rest of the year.
