We create leading PBL educational programs with design thinking for primary schools and preschools.
Our mission is to create learning experiences.
We believe in the amazing capabilities of our children and the importance of spending quality time with them at home and in the classroom. During the key formative years of their lives — from 4 to 10 years of age — they learn at an incredible rate. There is no better time to bring into play their incredible abilities and help them become confident human beings. They can do so much more — and so can we.
We believe that the way we learn and educate ourselves is the biggest challenge of our time. It reflects on everything we do — what kind of skills we need to prosper, how happy and successful we can become and how can we change the world around us for the better. That's why we need much, much better ways to foster the so-called '21st century skills' — problem solving, creativity, collaboration, communication, curiosity, initiative, grit, leadership, adaptability, social and cultural awareness.
We believe that the best way to nurture skills is with whole learning experiences. We should make use of powerful, proven innovation methods such as design thinking and stimulate children to solve real-life challenges and explore how the world actually works. And we should make this easy, fun and engaging for everyone — adults and kids alike.
Case study - "Design Champions", a unique PBL educational program from Bulgaria.
Design Champions is a complete, comprehensive PBL program for preschools and primary schools, involving 500+ teachers, 180+ educational institutions, 90+ locations and 10,000+ children all over Bulgaria.
The program offers 32 projects called missions with a unique theme based on a profession or human activity. Each mission lasts 5 days, 90 minutes per day and contains detailed plans, presentations, video links, group and individual activities, materials for parents and much more.
All missions are based on design thinking - the children go through an iterative process of Exploring, Ideating and Creating and use a number of tools and techniques such as journey mapping, interviewing, Round Robin, prototyping, concept poster, feedback, etc.
