Solve for Tomorrow: Next Gen 2023
Back for a third year with brand-new resources, task and theme!
This year our focus is on inclusivity, inviting students to take part in an opportunity like no other: to explore the role tech can play in creating a world where everyone belongs.
As part of a plug-and-play Design Thinking sprint lesson for students aged 11–15, this 40-minute lesson is designed to run itself. Simply follow the teacher delivery guide and use the video’s handy countdowns so you’ll know how long to spend on each task.
This is an exciting opportunity for your students to solve a problem using tech, learn about real careers and enter their ideas into a nationwide competition winning real tech prizes.
What are we looking for:
- An idea that helps a group who may be excluded from a service or experience
- An idea that is innovative
- The use of technology
