Design Squad Latinx is fully bilingual (English-Spanish) and consists of four self-contained, flexible modules. Each module spans two or three sessions and introduces children to the design process through real-world problem-solving. By championing the children’s unique perspectives and knowledge in solving community problems, the program provides an empowering experience with engineering.
The modules include engineering design challenges, videos, material lists, instructions for facilitators, discussion prompts, handouts, and more! In each module, kids will:
- Watch an engaging video that introduces the topic
- Meet relatable clients who need help solving a problem
- Work in groups to understand the client’s needs
- Brainstorm possible solutions
- Build a prototype, test, and redesign it
- Share their solutions and reflect on their process and designs
