Episode 007: Design and Innovation: Asking the Right Questions
Featuring Matt Abbondanzio, Assistant Head of School, Center for Excellence in Design and Innovation.
Design is a way of thinking—a method of distilling something down to its essence in order to remake it as simple as it should be. Good design intentionally relates to its context and responds to all potential points of view. Design is often associated with aesthetics, how something looks. Although important on one level, it captures a small portion of design. Good design relates and provides value to anyone who interacts with it. This is the standard to which we hold students in the Innovation Lab. Our students reach these goals by learning to develop their perspective through unique lenses.
How do we take students beyond STEM and STEAM into the world of inquiry and ethnography? The Center for Excellence in Design and Innovation at La Jolla Country Day School does just that. Whether through inroads into entrepreneurship or developing new technologies, this is a program that pushes the envelope for 21st century learning.
