Video by dLab staff featured on Edutopia

Amy Erin Borovoy, Edutopia’s digital media curator, selected a short video created by John Nash for inclusion in a new post in her ongoing series, “5 Minute Film Festival.”

Focusing on design thinking in education, the post includes eight videos on design thinking in schools from organizations such as Ideo, the Stanford d.School, and the Henry Ford Learning Institute.

Nash’s video, Borovoy notes, shows how “grad students at Iowa State University learn how to address school improvement issues using design thinking. This snapshot of their process shows how design thinking can be applied to a variety of kinds of problems.”

The video was plucked from work Nash did prior to arriving at the University of Kentucky, where he applied tenets of design thinking in his educational leadership courses at Iowa State University.
