Dear Teachers

Being the Change, Changes the Being

Design for Change first began in 2009 at Riverside School (Ahmedabad) India, as a ONE week challenge to inspire children to Be the Change, and now reaches over 200,000 schools across the world.

Design for Change begins with the simple and powerful premise: 'I CAN'

More specifically, children can. The 'I CAN' model of design thinking consists of four simple steps: Feel, Imagine, Do and Share. Through these steps, children use the lens of empathy to uncover the overt and latent needs of the society around them, imagine potential solutions to the problems, then re-frame their ideas using a systemic view of the field.

By empowering students to identify the challenges that most affect them, their schools and their communities, Design for Change gives children a sense of agency and inspires them to make the world a better place.

This book is a response to the need we saw from teachers who expressed a desire to see their children use the design thinking process beyond just the challenge and as a year long immersive curriculum. Teachers were excited that this model offered a structured approach to teach and assess the 21st century skills. The Design for Change team collaborated with the best minds in the fields of design and education to introduce Design Thinking in schools.

We are excited to introduce you to the revised version of the Design Thinking Guide. It had a successful pilot over seventy schools across India in 2014-16. DFC is an inclusive idea and this was seen in the diversity of our pilot schools. We had schools from different education boards: CBSE, ICSE, IGSCE, IB, State Education Boards and NIOS. And our enthusiastic teachers and students came from private schools, affordable schools and government schools. They took to the spirit of Design Thinking Guide and contextualized it to fit it in their own frameworks and timetables.

Teachers and students from different parts of our country came together to take forward the Design for Change movement. They put in all their efforts and hard work to create a meaningful impact through this curriculum. We are extremely grateful for their support and feedback to help improve the Design Thinking Guide.

We heard some amazing things from both students and teachers. Both of them said that the Design for Change sessions fostered stronger relationships in the classrooms.

These stories from students and teachers have inspired us to take forward the Design Thinking Guide and continue our learning journey with schools across the country and the world.

Excited to have your school on board!

The Design Thinking Framework

Why Design Thinking in EducationConsider the Current ScenarioThe top 10 in demand jobs in 2010, did not even exist in 2004

Technical information doubles every two years

We are currently educating children for jobs that don’t exist…..With technology that has not been invented…..In order to solve problems that we don’t even know are problems yet!

That means for a student starting a 4 year degree, half of what they learn in their first year, will be outdated by the 3rd year of study!

Research by Karl Fisch | Scott McLeod | Jeff Bronman

The DESIGN THINKING mindset is :

Human centered – builds on user patterns and behaviorsCollaborative – it works with the user instead of ‘for’ Optimistic – at the heart of this mindset is the message that we are not helpless, that change is possible and that we can drive it.

What does this

mean for the

21st century

LEARNER

EDUCATOR

CURRICULUM

Students are NOT HELPLESS,

CHANGE IS POSSIBLE and THEY can drive it!

The Preferred ScenarioDesign starts with saying ‘what if’ rather than asking ‘what’s wrong’. This shift is significant otherwise we end up solving the wrong problems and wonder why change does not happen.

The structure and design of The Guide is different to that of many conventional textbook formats. The expectation is that students will take an active approach to their learning with the teacher acting as a facilitator, guide and mentor.

Each of the four steps: FEEL, IMAGINE, DO, SHARE is explored using the same structure:

Ÿ Inspire : A real life case study of one school's actual DFC story in cartoon format with a YouTube link, so it can be viewed by students as a practical example.

Ÿ Reflect : Getting students to review the DFC story to discuss and bring out the different issues bothering them

Ÿ Action: Undertaken in pairs or groups and designed to bring to life, the theme being explored and build key skills.

Ÿ Assess: Students review their own work and growth through self and peer assessment tools given at the end of each section

Routine and timingsThe Guide can be introduced as a whole course over a three to six month period. It covers 30 sessions which are divided into 60 minute time slots, making it around 30 hours in the year. The guide offers enough flexibility to be comfortably included into your existing timetable.

Involving parents and othersThis is a key part of the DFC culture given that the students are working to change the world around them. This is particularly relevant at the Share stage. We encourage you to get your students to talk to their families, friends and others about their DFC activity, so that when they get to the Share stage, they have a level of support and engagement that makes the sharing even more powerful and meaningful.

Documenting the journeyIt is important that the students capture each stage of their DFC journey visually, as well as by writing in their copy of The Guide. This can be done by photo or video so you will need to make the relevant equipment available throughout each session, and assign individual students the responsibility of capturing each stage of the DFC process so that no moment is lost for the final story telling.

Materials and ToolsThough the guide needs only very limited learning materials and tools; certain sessions require additional materials which a teacher needs to provide.

Learning EnvironmentTeacher needs to be mindful of the environment and surroundings in which students work on the Guide. While some sessions work best in classrooms, others benefit from open spaces.

Support Material-www.dfcworld.comIt is often said that inspiration is a perishable commodity and we need to keep replenishing it. Therefore, we strongly recommend the Design for Change website to get yourself and your students regularly inspired by the real stories of change.

CBSE & State BoardsCBSE and State Boards have introduced Life Skills Curriculum in schools. Life

Skills Educa�on aims to enable adolescents to ar�culate their issues and

know their rights; build their self-esteem and self confidence; and

develop the ability to take responsibility for self, rela�onships and the

immediate society around them. The major objec�ves of Life Skills

Educa�on are to develop skills to empower young adolescents to

respond to real life situa�ons in posi�ve and responsible ways. DTG

begins with children mapping their community and iden�fying the hot

spots that they would like to work towards to bring a posi�ve change.

The process followed in DTG empowers children with the "I Can" mindset

building their self confidence and ac�ng as catalyst for their transforma�on

into change-makers.

ICSE BoardIn ICSE, Socially Useful and Produc�ve Work (SUPW) is a mandatory subject and the focus is on building values of

ci�zenship in children. The core idea is to provide children with a space to engage with society and develop skills

through which they can add value to their community. DTG will be able to adequately provide the same and further

build value of empathy in children leading to their frui�ul engagement in society.

IB BoardDTG can be a part of CAS (Crea�vity, Ac�on, Service).The objec�ves of CAS focus on students developing reflec�ve

thinking, *willingness to accept new challenges*, awareness of themselves as members of communi�es with

responsibili�es towards each other and the environment. These objec�ves are completely in synergy with what

Design Thinking Guide also aims for, therefore DTG can be very easily incorporated as a part of CAS.

Session 1Why Design for Change

60 mins

OBJECTIVE

Inspire children about the power of Design Thinking and how it can be used to make the world a better place. Introduce them to the 4 step framework of Feel, Imagine, Do, Share and how this builds the I CAN superpower in every child.

TIMEPAGE NO.

15 mins.1 to 51

15 mins.1 to 52

10 mins.

Why Design for ChangeStart by getting the students in groups or individually read aloud/share ‘Why Design for Change’ comic strip from pages 1 to 3. Then, review the world map on pages 4-5 and show them that they will be part of a global movement. You can ask students to identify the superpower used by the children in DFC stories. Have a discussion with them about what is their superpower

Ask students if they have any thoughts, comments or responses to what they have just read. Get them excited that the four steps of Feel, Imagine, Do and Share will help them ‘Be the Change’ and make them believe that ‘I CAN’ are the two most powerful words in their vocabulary.

Closing the LoopGet children to share about what the I CAN superpower is and how does one get this power. This will help you assess if the 4 step framework has been understood. What words did they use to describe the book in terms of layout and design.

OverviewThis is a quick introduction to the idea and process of design thinking and is to be taught in

one 60-minute session. Since it is a very quick exercise, it is important for teachers to monitor

timing carefully to make sure students complete all parts of the exercise and that they get a

clear understanding of the four-stage DFC process.

This session also starts to build skills in questioning, listening, analysis, giving / receiving

feedback and reflection.

Design a school bag This is a quick drawing exercise where each student designs and illustrates an ideal school bag for their partner on page 7 of their Guide. This is to be done without any interaction between the partners.

Teacher TipInform the children before this session its not about how 'well' you can draw, its just about illustrating YOUR concept of a bag.

Step 1: Feel Each student has 7 minutes to interview their partner to get a better understanding of their partner's usage and needs in a school bag, covering the facts, form, function and relationship with the bag. Questions are given on page 8 of the Guide and the partner's answers should be recorded in the space below each question. You can ask the student to build on the responses of their partner and ask more questions, if required.

Teacher Tip Make sure the pair swaps after 7 minutes so both get an opportunity to complete this exercise.

Step 2&3: Imagine & DoEach student has to redesign the bag keeping in mind their partner's need. They can do so through illustrations and words.

Teacher TipEncourage them to go beyond the obvious and probe deeper.

Step 4: ShareAsk children to share their redesigned bag with their partner and ask for their feedback to further improve it. Next tell them to fill their responses for the given reflection questions. Ask them to first mark their own self and then get their partner's feedback on their listening skills.

Wrapping UpAsk children to reflect on what they learnt from this exercise and the new things they have been able to find out about their partner.

Closing the Loop'The Shift' gives an important insight to close the loop with.

Discuss how the initial design has changed to the final design and link it back to

how the Feel, Imagine, Do, Share process helped bust your initial assumptions.

Emphasize the significance of designing WITH the user instead of FOR the user.

Questions you may want to ask your group to check in on their understanding:

How did you feel about the warm-up challenge?

Three key things that you learnt?

Do you feel ready to start the DFC journey?

What did you find particularly challenging/exciting/inspiring and why?

OverviewThis is a quick introduction to the idea and process of design thinking and is to be taught in

one 60-minute session. Since it is a very quick exercise, it is important for teachers to monitor

timing carefully to make sure students complete all parts of the exercise and that they get a

clear understanding of the four-stage DFC process.

This session also starts to build skills in questioning, listening, analysis, giving / receiving

feedback and reflection.

CONGRATULATIONS! You have just experienced a very quick lesson in

design thinking. You used the four simple steps of feel, imagine, do,

and share to design A SOLUTION THAT IS NOT ABOUT BEING ‘DIFFERENT’ BUT

ABOUT MAKING A ‘DIFFERENCE’.

THE KEY SHIFT IS THAT when you design with the user (identifying real

needs) rather than for the user (assuming the needs), then you get

solutions that improve lives.

REFLECTION & PEER REVIEW

One of the important steps in realizing your super power is to understand yourself better. You can do this by working on your strengths and accepting your mistakes honestly. Given below are some reflective questions to help you observe yourself more closely.

We are constantly changing and building our strengths and our measuring scale needs to take that into account.

Ÿ This stage involves observing, discussing and analyzing situations close to one's heart. Becoming passionate

about a situation or problem provides a gateway to being engaged in solving it and creating change.

Ÿ Students are encouraged to observe and be open to the world around them.

Ÿ Students learn how to become empathetic to the people, places, things involved in the particular situations

they are addressing.

Ÿ Students assess what bothers them about the situation and why. What part of the problem is most troubling?

Why is it important to help fix it? What connection do they have to the issue?

Ÿ Through the feel stage students become changed, in part by becoming engaged with the issue they will try

and design a solution to address it.

We recommend that the teacher refer to this page just to refresh what the core understanding of the section

FEEL is going to nurture in the children. These insights allow you to guide the questions and direct the

conversations.

Engagement: Individuals need to care about the work they are doing and they

need to find it personally meaningful to them in some way, in order to spend the

time and energy it requires to produce work that is of high quality and has a

positive impact on others.

Ÿ This stage involves observing, discussing and analyzing situations close to one's heart. Becoming passionate

about a situation or problem provides a gateway to being engaged in solving it and creating change.

Ÿ Students are encouraged to observe and be open to the world around them.

Ÿ Students learn how to become empathetic to the people, places, things involved in the particular situations

they are addressing.

Ÿ Students assess what bothers them about the situation and why. What part of the problem is most troubling?

Why is it important to help fix it? What connection do they have to the issue?

Ÿ Through the feel stage students become changed, in part by becoming engaged with the issue they will try

and design a solution to address it.

We recommend that the teacher refer to this page just to refresh what the core understanding of the section

FEEL is going to nurture in the children. These insights allow you to guide the questions and direct the

conversations.

Engagement: Individuals need to care about the work they are doing and they

need to find it personally meaningful to them in some way, in order to spend the

time and energy it requires to produce work that is of high quality and has a

positive impact on others.

NOW BEGIN YOUR STORY OF CHANGE!

1 be a cartographer

The first step to figuring out what you want to change is to look around you and record what you see. In this exercise, you will map your world.

Here are some ways in which you can observe your world. Consider not only the physical world but also the social and emotional world.

23

Here is an example of a map drawn by a student:

Here are some examples of what students in other schools identified as their hot spots...Ÿ Our football field is not fit for playingŸ Girls and boys in our class do not like working togetherŸ We sometimes take our teachers for grantedŸ Our bathrooms are dirtyŸ Our school canteen is very chaoticŸ People in our community do not consider girls to be equal to boys

For more information visit us online : designthinkingguide.dfcworld.com

OBJECTIVEThe objective of this session is to look at the world with fresh eyes and to notice the unnoticed. Students will learn that they can view their world through multiple filters-seeing, hearing and feeling- and map it; Children learn to identify the opportunities for change around them, both hot spots and bright spots. By doing these activities, they become more aware and sensitive to people and the environment.

TIMEPAGE NO.

DESCRIPTION

60 mins

ReconnectStart the session by discussing the comic story and how children looked not only through their eyes, but also their heart to identify what bothered them.

IntroductionIntroduce the word 'Cartographer' and have a discussion around who a Cartographer is and what he/she does. Highlight 'OBSERVATION' as the key skill that a Cartographer needs.

Next, spend time discussing the sample map given on page 23, and use it to explain the 3 ways in which students can observe their world – Physical, Social and Emotional.

Teacher Tip:Introduce the concept of 'Hot Spots' and 'Bright Spots' with the help of the case studies given on page 28.

Be a CartographerSend the children to different areas within the school and ask them to observe these spaces using both their hearts and minds. Remind them they have to identify opportunities for change and not problems. They can illustrate/ write/ take photos to map their environment.

Teacher Tip:Ensure that students are mapping an environment that they are familiar with.

Closing the Loop & Reflection and Peer ReviewTo close the loop, ask the students if this activity had helped them notice what they had missed earlier. Highlight how observation is an important skill to cultivate 'Empathy'. Next tell them to fill their responses for the given reflection questions. Ask them to first mark their own self and then get their partner's feedback on their observation skills.

By the next session, ask students to revisit the areas that they have chosen to map in this session and look at them more closely in order to add more details.

Students noticed that the drinking water area in their school had leaky taps. This wasted water and attracted swarms of bees, making the area unsafe.

Students were concerned about the growing problem of obesity in their school. They noticed that the real problem was that students do not have a lot of physical activities. They decided that promoting bicycling to school could be a solution. But there were no safe bike paths and hence nobody was cycling.

INDIA

U.S.A.

Students noticed that there was a lot of noise and commotion during their school break. Looking at the situation with fresh eyes, they saw that the playground was dirty and the playground equipment was broken. They realized that the noise and commotion was caused by the fact that children did not have a place to play.

The objective of this session is to pause to find the cause. It helps students to understand how

every clue tells a story and that no clue is too small. Getting all the clues helps them to bust

assumptions and finally identify the real challenge.

DESCRIPTION

ReconnectRecap the journey that the students took as cartographers, and how this helped them become more aware and sensitive to their surroundings. Quickly recap the hot/bright spot they chose to work on and why.

IntroductionIntroduce the 'Be a Detective' activity as a tool to challenge their assumptions regarding the hot/bright spot they have chosen to work on. Explain that this will help them define the real challenge.

2.1 IdentifyHelp the students break down the hot/bright spot that they have chosen, by identifying the people, environment and behaviors that contribute to the current situation in their opinion.

Out of Class ObservationDivide the class into smaller groups (maximum 6 people per group). Each group is assigned the responsibility for reviewing the environment, people and the behaviours. This will require them to work outside the classroom and observe the way the challenge they have identified affects those around them. Ask them to note the impact on page 31 of the Guide.

Teacher Tip:

Ensure that all groups have a spokesperson to report findings of answers to all the points on page 31, back to the whole class.

Closing the Loop & Reflection and Peer ReviewClose this session with students sharing some of the details they have observed. Question the authenticity of the observation to push them to think further. Ask them to reflect on the shift between their assumptions (on page 30) and their actual observations (on page 31). Highlight how detectives value all the clues, allow themselves to be surprised, don't work from assumptions and judgments based on people and places. Ask them to keep observing their chosen hot/bright spot through the week and at different points of the day to help them understand different patterns of behavior. Next tell them to fill their responses for the given reflection questions. Ask them to first mark their own self and then get their partner's feedback on their critical thinking skills.

Detectives are trained to notice details that help them solve crimes. By breaking down the situation into parts, you are more likely to gain a deeper understanding.

2.1 NOTICE (Individual activity)

How does a detective dig deeper? He/She notices who all were present at the scene of crime? What were they doing when the crime happened? What does the crime spot look like?

For e.g A few grade 7 students at Riverside School identified dirty washrooms in their school as their hot spot.

OBJECTIVE

Students will learn that interviewing is an important skill that helps them bust assumptions.

They will also realise that in order to get relevant information and interesting details, they

need to listen carefully to effectively understand the user's perspective.

Students will learn that interviewing is a skill that helps them record not only the spoken

language but also the body language. Being sensitive to both - the words, the tone and the

body language, will reveal a story from which they will understand the user better.

an interview is a journey. To understand the situation better, you will have to talk to people. In other words, you will have to be a reporter. Read the comic below to learn how to interview...

Assume a beginner’s Mindset--

Pretend you know nothing about the topic you are investigating.

Tell me when...

Interviewing is a

team sport!

Ask “Why” often - even when you think you

know the answer. Asking why gets people

to explain how they think and feel.

One partner can ask

the questions

the goal is to find out how people think

and feel by exploring details,

emotions, and

stories!

ENCOURAGE STORIES

Try to Avoid Yes or

No Questions.

an interview is a journey. To understand the situation better, you will have to talk to people. In other words, you will have to be a reporter. Read the comic below to learn how to interview...

Assume a beginner’s Mindset--

Pretend you know nothing about the topic you are investigating.

Tell me when...

Interviewing is a

team sport!

Ask “Why” often - even when you think you

know the answer. Asking why gets people

to explain how they think and feel.

the goal is to find out how people think

and feel by exploring details,

REFLECTION & PEER REVIEW

Given below are some reflective questions to help you observe yourself more closely. We are constantly changing and building our strengths and our measuring scale needs to take that into account.

Use these images to mark where you are at the present moment in the super-powers of improvisation.

IMPROVISATIONImprovisation is your abiltiy to effectively respond to a situation by changing your attitude and tone. It allows you to understand the situation from another's perspective and respond accordingly.

Take 5 minutes to first put your markings under “I Think” and then pass it to your activity partner to get their thoughts on your present behaviour.

Now compare the stages you have marked for yourself and where your friend has put you for the present. Why might there have been a difference in the marking of stages?

Session 8 : Wrapping Up

TIMEPAGE NO.

- 5 mins.1

DESCRIPTION

OBJECTIVE

When assimilating their findings, students will learn that a problem is like a jigsaw puzzle.

Putting all the pieces together will help them identify what the 'real' challenge is.

41 40mins.2

15 mins.3 42

Teacher TipYour role of asking questions will be critical to help children reach the real challenge. Your questions should be directed towards guiding students to make connections between different parts of the chosen opportunity for change.

Closing the LoopAsk children to feel the questions given in Wrapping Up and tell them to share their reflections about the Feel process.

Reconnect Make a journey map for the children about the different things they did as part of identifying and understanding their opportunity of change. Ask them what they feel they have learnt by doing these different activities.

FindingsAsk children to think about what they learnt about their chosen hot/bright spot by being a Detective and Reporter. Ask them to reflect and note down their key insights from both these processes on page 41.

Bring the class together to discuss their findings and complete the answers to thequestions on page 41.

Bring the class together to discuss their findings and get them to make connections between their different observations to help them reach and understand the Real Challenge.

Take them through the questions and answers, finally agreeing as a group on whatthe REAL CHALLENGE is.

For example : children might have noticed that their bathrooms were dirty. Only after interviewing those associated with the problem (children, cleaning staff, teachers) that they will realize that the problem is built of multiple parts such as bathroom etiquette, lack of awareness of the cleaning staff, outdated or inappropriate cleaning equipment, cleaning schedule and the real challenge is not just dirty bathrooms but it is these multiple parts that leave a bathroom dirty .

WRAPPING UP: FEEL

How did talking to people change your perspective?

Why is the feel stage important?

5

This stage involved looking, discussing and analyzing situations

close to your heart. it encourages you to observe and be open to the

world around you.

by noticing details and being open to different points of view, you learn to become more empathetic to people, places and things involved in the situation.

this is important to identify what the real problem is. otherwise, in our haste we often end up solving the wrong problem.

you are now ready to embark on the next step - imagine - to come up

with solutions for your challenge!
