Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

In the session we will share resources like rubrics, roles for students, timelines and resource constraints. Additionally we will use media including student projects and prototypes along with showing a profession of prototypes as our skill set has improved as a team. We will share our favorite tools like OneNote, Forms, Adobe Spark, and Adobe Illustrator as they have shaped the output and media students use in delivery. The challenge we have addressed is using Sustainable Development Goals to frame authentic problems our student teams attempt to solve. The evidence will be the continued improvement of student output as we have developed skills through the year.
