This Challenge Course introduces the concept of sustainable communities, and sustainable practices regarding the use of resources (rethink, reduce, refuse, repair, reuse & recycle). Students respond to video content by participating in in-app quizzes and design tutorials related to the information shared. The Challenge Course concludes with a design thinking project which challenges students to identify an opportunity to use resources within their school in more sustainable ways.
“Students exhibited creative thinking. They developed design thinking skills, spatial reasoning skills and 3D design skills. Ideas for design tasks were good and relevant. Videos were simple yet informative,” Jocelyn Fraser, teacher.
