WHAT DOES DESIGN THINKING GUIDE OFFER?
The Design Thinking Guide for schools is a 30-hour curriculum which empowers the middle school students to believe that they can make a difference to their environment and also provides a structured method to build 21st-century skills of empathy, collaboration and problem-solving. The assessment provided along with the guide helps students to identify their own strengths through the process of FIDS.

ASSESSMENT
Each child has his/her own unique strength which gets uncovered by understanding their own self better. Keeping this in mind, the assessment provided at the end of each session will help children to channelize their energy and help them believe that they are not helpless, change is possible and they can drive it.
It provides an opportunity for children to assess and know the level of the skills that are developed through the process of FIDS.

21ST CENTURY SKILLS
Students will face problems that don’t even exist right now. We, as educators, need to equip them with skill sets that will help them to solve the real-life problems. The more we focus on students’ ability to devise effective solutions to real-world problems, the more successful those students will become.
Each session of the Design Thinking Guide provides children with opportunities to be creative, critical, collaborative and empathetic, thus developing 21st-century skills.
