Neil Anderson · 2012 · ResearchOnline at James Cook University (James Cook University)

Summary. This paper develops a design thinking framework to teach creative problem-solving to secondary students in rural and remote schools. Students learn a six-step process—understand, observe, visualize, evaluate, refine, implement—applied to local rural issues, creating multimedia presentations or games. The research produces a model for implementing design thinking across schools to build students' creative capacity and innovation skills needed for future workplaces.
