Questions and Answers
Global Challenges Facing Secondary Education
The dominant education model is largely based on 20th century educational practices that do not include digital literacy.
Students are not engaged, long for relevance; high drop out rates globally.
A learning gap exists between the teachers and the students with technical knowledge. Teachers often lack context of how technology is used in real life.
Students lack essential 21st century skills needed to enter the workforce.
21st Century Skills
It is not just about the core academic subjects of math and science, but the intersection of these and other subjects and how students use critical thinking skills. To be competitive in the 21st century, students will need to make connections and integrate ideas across the various disciplines—what Daniel Pink calls “symphony”—the ability to visualize, recognize patterns, and make connections.

Project Based LearningDesign Thinking
Design Thinking is a creative process for discovering opportunities and finding new
ideas.
The Design Thinking Process is used to align the Digital STEAM Workshop projects with
the creative process.
The Design Thinking Process helps students understand that the creative process is
similar for all design challenges and can be applied to many different types of projects.
Project Based Learning Through The Digital STEAM Workshop
Engages students in science, technology, engineering, art and math through relevant real life projects introduced by industry designers and teachers.
3D project viewers and learning through the design process promotes creativity, critical thinking, and problem solving.
Students learn by doing rather than learning how to use a design tool.
The practice of the arts promotes new ways of thinking and drawing connections while rewarding students for exploration.
