Have you ever wanted to completely change up something in your school or classroom but don’t even know where to start? Is there a problem or need that you’ve been dying to solve but can’t think of that just-right solution? Come “hack” with us as we work together to ideate and prototype rapid solutions that you can take back with you to test on Monday. A high-speed version of the Design Thinking Process will be used, so drink a lot of coffee and come with a few ideas in mind. Will you redesign your literacy block? Hack your schedule?
