Learners explore the process of human- centred design thinking and making,in this inspiring and engaging session. Learners first take part in an active museum gallery exploration, taking inspiration from a vast and diverse range of objects linked to transport and sustainability. They then work collaboratively in teams to build understanding around an environmental-sustainability themed design brief, generating imaginative ideas in response to this, before creatively making and prototyping their ideas, and sharing these with each other.

The Midlands Maker Challenge encourages an open and exploratory mindset to help young people feel empowered to make a difference in their communities and to learn and develop new skills.
