My role as an instructor was to facilitate student learning by providing an atmosphere for collaboration and problem solving. The students were made familiar with the process of design thinking and were encouraged to use these tools to find design solutions to problems within their environment. The aim was to cultivate an environment for collaboration and creative critical thinking.
