    I had fun doing the Ready, Set, Design! class for our Math Modeling class of sophomores. The math teacher was so excited with the class that he wants to continue doings similar lessons in his curriculum.

    Erin Riffle posted an update in the group Group logo of Smithsonian Design Institute 2014 NOLASmithsonian Design Institute 2014 NOLA 5 years, 8 months ago

    I’m curious about what experiences the group from 2014 NOLA had with implementing design thinking in their home communities this year! I was fortunate enough to have a chance to get out into some schools to present the Ready Set Design workshop to some elementary school classrooms. I also was able to see other teaching artists conduct the…[Read more]

    I just recieved some good news from Australia that I’d like to share with the group.  The Asia Pacific Design Library and Kelvin Grove State College, where I teach, has just recieved $10,000 dollars to run the third iteration of 2 Day City as part of the Cultural Program at this year’s g20 summit which will be hosted in my hometown of…[Read more]

    Hi Mark!  I just happened upon the ’10 rules’ you posted here and am so thankful.  After my first go at a design lesson in 7th grade math yesterday I was wondering if I did a disservice to students that they didn’t analyze the mathematics behind their designs in the same class period. Rule 8 addresses this, and helps me let go of any regret and r…[Read more]

    Terry DEEN replied to the topic Queensland Design Education: 2Day City + other projects in the forum Group logo of Smithsonian Design Institute 2014 NOLASmithsonian Design Institute 2014 NOLA 6 years, 5 months ago

    2 Day City started up at the end of the school year in 2013, which in Australia means late December).

    Due to the success of the 2 days, the team has run the program again in April and has recently accepted the request to run the event for the Asia Pacific Design Library‘s DesignMinds.

    The project will continue to evolve.

    As part of the work I…[Read more]

    Thanks for sending through the Oblique Strategies link.  Eno has had a hand in recent cultural events in Australia http://www.abc.net.au/news/2009-03-19/brian-eno-to-lead-new-sydney-festival/1623812.

    I mentioned the wildcards briefly in my presentation, but the key word here is briefly.  The design thinking framework underpinning the in…[Read more]

    Is the 2Day Design Workshop an annual event?  If so what is the project this year?

    The wildcards are wonderful, I did not remember them from your presentation.

    These wildcard prompts remind me of the Oblique Strategies of  Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt,

    (http://stoney.sb.org/eno/oblique.html) I have been eager to use these but they are often very esoteric.

    I could rewrite a set taking more contemporary cues from teen culture.

    Due to the genuine interest in the examples of design education at Kelvin Grove State College that I shared on the final day of SDI NOLA, I am hoping to host a forum to share ideas and discuss projects I have had the pleasure of working on back in Queensland.  I will be online to answer any questions at 4-5:30 next Wednesday afternoon.  I am k…[Read more]

    Very good video.  Often we focus on the problem without putting any effort into creating  a solution.  How might we, makes us focus on examining solutions to the problem.
