Educational forum explores role of 'design thinking'

For example, Beijing Normal University School of Future Design, which co-hosted the forum with Tongji University, has worked with schools in the Pearl River Delta region to develop courses for design thinking and applications for smart classrooms.

Gao Peng, dean of the School of Future Design, said they will continue to intensify exchanges with design schools around the world and use the experiences to facilitate the STEDM approach at schools, thereafter providing a platform of mutual and lifelong learning for both students and teachers.
