In this fundamental workshop, we will explore human-centered design, a design management framework that develops solutions to problems by involving the human perspective in all steps of the problem-solving process. Understanding this framework is the underpinning of design thinking and a critical first step towards creating change within organizations.

Lunch will be provided.

Feel free to bring your laptop so you can follow along with the information.

At this session, we will spend time actively working on a plan for 19/20 to continue adding to our toolkits for teaching and incorporating sustainability knowledge and practices into the classroom. Have you heard of, or taught using the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) before? Have you made your course paperless? Have you taught a class outdoors before? Would you like to hear from others that have done those things? We want to hear your ideas and share experiences.

If you are interested in attending, please RSVP via email to Falisha Rowe at falisha.rowe@humber.ca.
