"MAKERSPACES PROVIDE HANDS-ON, CREATIVE WAYS TO ENCOURAGE STUDENTS TO DESIGN, EXPERIMENT, BUILD AND INVENT AS THEY DEEPLY ENGAGE IN SCIENCE, ENGINEERING AND TINKERING.”- EDUTOPIA

Design Thinking in the Makerspace

Double Peak School students have a 30-40 minute Innovation Block within their daily schedules. Within this block, classes cycle through engineering, technology, and/or design thinking in the Makerspace. While in the DPS Makerspace, classes have two weeks to go through the Design Thinking Process to build prototypes to help solve real world or curricular Design Challenges.
