The Everyone’s an Inventor Challenge Course inspires learners in grades 2 to 8 to explore how observation, curiosity, creativity and persistence can transform everyday problems into amazing inventions. They’ll learn that everyone can invent something that makes life easier, safer, or more fun.
Using a design thinking approach, learners will solve real-world problems, develop ideas, create prototypes and test and refine their inventions to pitch to others.
The structure of the Challenge Course includes short, engaging videos, interactive quizzes and easy-to-follow tutorials to help learners build their understanding and 3D design skills. Step by step, they are guided through the design thinking process as they identify challenges and create innovative solutions.
This Challenge Course blends STEM, Art, ELA, Math, and SEL, aligning with NGSS, Common Core, CSTA, ISTE and CASEL frameworks. Learners think like engineers, artists, and storytellers – using data, imagination, empathy and persistence to transform real-world problems into creative, functional inventions that make a difference.
At the culmination of the Everyone’s an Inventor Challenge Course is a final design thinking challenge which invites learners to invent something brand new or take an existing invention and make it better.
