What is Day of Design?

Day of Design is December 8, 2017

Day of Design Challenges encourage students to create like an innovator by employing creative problem-solving skills and entrepreneurial mindset while innovating a solution to the problem. Teams spend ONE DAY creating their solutions:

In Water Warriors Design Thinking Challenge, Klein ISD students imagine and prototype flood barriers that can protect their community from flooding. Teams can tackle this challenge using a wide-range of materials and technology, from everyday materials available in the classroom to 3D printed components. The focus is on the ideas and approaches, not the products.

What is this challenge and how do we do it?

Look at these documents provided by Jason Learning to learn more about what your design team will create and how they can do it.

All age groups will participate in the same challenge: imagine and prototype flood barriers that can protect their community from flooding. Elementary teachers can use the middle and high school edition.

Teachers' Edition - Middle & High School
