[[File:Session2-banner.jpg|750px]]<br><br>Design means many things to many people — from a well-crafted “designer” purse
to the “designer” who made it. <br><br>
We are going to explore design as a way of working — an approach that is inventive, resourceful, and most of all, seeks to serve understand and include the needs perspective of others. <br><br>
There are many ways to solve problems and identify challenges. Design can give you new tools and skills to tackle your projects from a different perspective. Changing education is a really big challenge. So let's dive right in!<br><br>
In the following short clip, you will hear from Jill Vialet, social entrepreneur and educator, She’ll share some ideas about how design works for her. Jill founded several companies and nonprofits that focus on learning and schools. One of them, Substantial, works with school principals schools to help substitute teachers do their best work.

After watching, you may individually share your thoughts and takeaways on the discussion thread below.<br><br>{{Clickable button 2|Jump to the discussion|url=https://universityinnovation.org/wiki/2021_talk:Forum/Extreme_By_Design|class=mw-ui-progressive}}<br>

School is not only a place for academic activities. It’s a place where students connect with others, find friends, and develop their character. Teachers, administrators, and peers help them find their calling and discover their passions. Students get as much value from the chance interactions in dining halls and other informal spaces as they do from their classes. When social and emotional learning skills are intentionally taught, practiced, and reinforced in schools, students have better behavioral, social, and academic outcomes.
<br><br>
The pandemic has not only disrupted the delivery of academic programs, but it has impacted students in fundamental ways. All of those important interactions that happen beyond the classroom have become more difficult or they’re just gone, which has the potential to negatively affect students’ emotional states. As schools figure out how to best deliver education onlineor open campuses back safely, the well-being of students needs to be an important consideration. It is a complex challenge and, therefore, an opportunity to apply design thinking.
<br><br>
So this is the challenge we are inviting you to explore this week, as you learn design methods and mindsets:
* Prototype solutions (and your hypotheses) (estimated time: 1-2 hours)
<br>
Most of the activities are designed for you to do together as a team, while a few you can do in parallel, working either individually or in pairs. This is clearly indicated in the mural instructions. Estimated times are provided so you can plan your work and coordinate meeting times with your team. Also plan to check in with your uiguide. In the mural you will see one checkpoint at the end of section (1) that would be an excellent point to discuss with your uiguide.<br>
