We have organized thousands of educators to join our design thinking & Teaching Innovation workshops and training courses both in China and abroad.
Our experts help school educators embark on a journey of creative engagement with students, learning content and their schools through experiences, resources and tools by designing workshops, training courses and program guidance that are appropriate for beginners and inspire greater optimism and professional development.
Participants will gain a better understanding of how to create Design Thinking curricula and foster creative and innovative problem solving skills. Instructors will lead a handful of workshops on how to effectively design projects, analyze thought processes, and communicate the important underlying mindsets that surround Design Thinking. Leaders facilitate participants' initial work in creating curricula applicable to their environments and needs and create a collaborative community to share best practices going forward.

Understanding of why Design Thinking is important
Less than 1% of people know that creativity can be practiced by everyone. Our curriculum develop the skills, habits of mind, and experiences of students, so that they possess creative confidence, the ability to take intellectual and personal risks, and know how to collaboratively solve large-scale and real- world problems.
Our DTI curriculum(K-9) is currently applying in public and private schools in Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhengzhou.
DTI curriculum(K-9) goes far beyond the traditional approach to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), which is often focused on individual subjects and technical knowledge. Instead, we provide rich and varied experiences with all academic subjects, including the Humanities, with a focus on creative thinking, technological learning, and real-world problem solving.
Over time, students will gain a deep understanding of Design Thinking, a structured approach to creativity developed by Stanford’s d.school. Students also enjoy our curriculum due to the project-based learning that and deepens their understanding of the interdisciplinary subjects. Our curriculum is being piloted in some of the most progressive schools in China and the projects are being developed collaboratively by Design Thinking and Project-Based Learning experts from the US and Chinese classroom teachers.
