• Develop Criteria - What does a good solution need?

• Generate ideas - What are some possibilities?

• Select best possibilities - What fits the criteria best?

(MC²STEM) Metropolitan Cleveland Consortium STEM High School

Design Lab High School

Both new high schools are based on the principles of how schools should be structured for the 21st century. A dramatic departure from the factory-model education of the past, this new way of designing and delivering curriculum connects teachers, students and professionals to a wealth of relevant knowledge outside the walls of a school building. Students have opportunities that help them make connections between what they are learning and its application to their professional choices.

Objective of the District of Design

is to define Cleveland as the

product design capital of the

US…the Milan of the Midwest.
