Invention Ed: Teaching Creators, Not Consumers
Description:
Invention Education is emerging as a practice for building the core competencies that drive innovation: creativity, resourcefulness, and agility combined with an ability to dissect a problem, prototype, experiment and iterate. Join us to hear from Invention Education practitioners across the K-16 spectrum and a student inventor about how to enhance learning, open minds and possibilities, and prepare students for the jobs of the future through Invention Education.
