Field Trip Options
We're about skill building:
We've created field trips with design thinking in mind. To us, this means focusing on:
-
Accessing empathy
-
Identifying needs
-
Rapid prototyping
-
Ideating
-
Building to learn
-
Iteration
-
Communicating ideas
We believe that materials are tools for thinking and learning. Whether we use recycled materials or robots, art supplies or blocks, all field trips will ultimately be focused on one or more of these tenants.
We're flexible:
We've got a new way of doing things that gives you more options to create an experience that really works for you. Here are just a few of the considerations:
