Introduction

"The art of teaching is the art of assisting discovery"-Mark Van Doren

Be patient with yourself when learning something new.

Education by design is a one-week intensive workshop for educators in lesson design and emerging technologies. The workshop bridges your experience in the classroom with new tech tools and design strategies. You will be encouraged to find ways to utilize technology to your advantage.

In the workshop you will design a fully actionable lesson through a design process. Through visualizing, storytelling, and making iteratively you will design a lesson that excites your students and satisfies your needs.

Our objectives are to
  • Make students responsible for their own learning outcomes.
  • Foster important questions in the minds of learners.
  • Build cooperative learning opportunities.
  • Encourage personal exploration in the pursuit of common learning objectives.
  • Focus on rapid prototyping and testing.
  • Emphasize continuous documentation and sharing.
