Design, or Design Thinking, is an organizational principle for problem solving that supports important 21st century skills such as visual and technological literacy, creative problem solving, communication, and teamwork. In this session, participants learn how design thinking can be incorporated across the curriculum -- in mathematics, science, environmental studies, language arts, history, and art -- to support the needs of gifted learners. Participants experience the design process first hand and see it implemented in lesson plans developed through a collaboration between New Orleans public school teachers and students and experts from the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum.
