The Community Redesign Project
The Community Redesign Project is a website that takes students through the Design Thinking process to redesign a community space (a new monument in a local park, new structures for their playground, a library installation). During the planning process, the website provides resources for students to draw pictures or make models of their community redesigns, then use Augmented Reality apps like Aurasma and Membit to see what their ideas would look like in real life.
Student teams lead their projects from beginning to end by identifying needs, gathering insight from community members, brainstorming, building and pitching to the local community.
Join us as we begin to build out the Community Redesign Challenge on this google doc!
