For those of you who are new or just need a refresher, here are our overall goals:

1. To put students in an environment that is as real-world as possible

2. To empower students to drive their own learning process

3. To have students learn course content (whether it is math, science, English, social studies, etc.) through the process of design thinking and problem-solving

4. To foster critical thinking and collaboration

We achieve these goals by working with teachers to design experiences for their classes that require students to identify real-world problems related to the subject matter and design solutions to them. Sometimes the solutions involve the creation of physical objects (for which we have almost any tool you could want), and sometimes they are more abstract in nature.

Innovation Options

1. Create in your own classroom with makerspace supplies. (with or without an integration specialist)

2. Book the iWonder lab for classroom activities that require more specialized equipment for 1 or 2 days or more if iterations are needed.

iWonder will be a place where teachers can design and be inspired, too. If you’re designing something for your class and just need a brainstorming partner, let us be a resource to you. I can be a thought partner, or if you and a group of teachers just need a different setting in which to collaborate, come use iWonder!
