Increasing the problem-solving abilities of students and trainees is an important and valuable asset in today\u2019s dynamic work environment. CESIE recently held a workshop for trainers and teachers under the <\/strong>ADDET<\/a><\/strong> project which aim to provide them with the skills necessary to teach the Design Thinking methodology to their students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Design Thinking<\/strong>? Design thinking is a solution-based approach to problem solving which provides students with a clear 6 step<\/strong> path leading them through the process of a project. It is a user-centred approach<\/strong> that aims to accommodate the individual specifications of each individual, allowing them to develop a practical approach to problem solving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The seminar hosted by CESIE introduced teachers and trainers to the ADDET project, before informing them about the key principles of the Design Thinking methodology. This was also completed by a session showing to participants the practical uses of design thinking as a means of increasing the inclusive education opportunities for migrant children (for more information, see the project ENACTED<\/strong><\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The active and vibrant participation of those present demonstrated the interest to explore further the ways in which the design thinking methodology can be applied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
