Changing the Face of Education with Innovation and Design

In a complex world of modern technology and business, global leaders agree skills like empathy, collaboration, flexibility and problem solving are essential to success.

A transformative approach to education called design thinking is engaging students in project-based learning to solve real-world problems and equipping them with these skillsets. It focuses on teaching students how to think, not what to think.

St. Martin’s Episcopal School will open The Gibbs Family Center for Innovation + Design, the most comprehensive makerspace in the region, featuring everything from prototyping labs to a production studio, emphasizing their commitment to this new way of thinking.
