School of Tomorrow
Sample content — a complementary program teaching future-facing skills alongside the formal curriculum.
Context
The formal curriculum leaves little room for future-thinking and entrepreneurial skills.
Problem
Talented high-school students have no clear path to practice real-world ideation.
Insight
Student motivation multiplies when they work on a real problem from their own community.
Vision
A short-form workshop taking students from problem identification to a working prototype.
Strategy
Pilot in a single school, document carefully, then expand to more schools.
Process
Designing a complementary curriculum, training volunteer mentors, and running hands-on workshops.
My role
Designed the program framework and led the pilot execution.
Team
In collaboration with one school and a group of volunteer mentors.
Design & technology
A largely in-person program, supported by digital documentation for mentors.
Challenges
Coordinating the complementary program's schedule against the pressure of the formal curriculum.
Solution
Designing the workshops as short, intensive sessions rather than one long course.
Outputs
A program framework, mentor guide, and a set of student prototypes.
Verified results
Pending — results will be added after the program's formal evaluation.
