This excerpt is a curriculum guide for a design project focused on addressing local waste issues. Students are tasked with developing a solution, such as an app for waste donation or a multi-media campaign, to target a specific audience within their community, including their school, family, or community organizations. The guide encourages students to consider a range of solutions that address the problem of waste, such as reducing waste, recycling, or raising awareness. It also provides links to resources, such as videos and fact sheets, to support student learning and understanding of waste issues.
