Design Thinking Workshop
100 participating teachers who received training via online education were invited to an 8-day/7-night workshop for face-to-face education. This phase consisted of four main parts, including introduction, seminars, workshops, projects and outputs. Not all components were implemented sequentially. Instead, they were blended in the process. The themes of the days were determined according to the steps of creating a design thinking model: empathize, define, generate ideas, prototype and test. In this case, the training program is divided into categories so that you can experience and gain knowledge of the entire process in one week.
Opening Events (Introduction Meeting)
This part includes a) a meeting where the aims and process of the training program are explained, b) an introductory event, and c) dividing the participants into 12 project groups and placing tutors in the project teams who will guide the groups during the project development processes.
