Design Thinking & Entrepreneurship students are using the Design Thinking cycle by partnering with our food services manager. The prototype stage is a way to get feedback on their idea through a creative visual, and this lunch combo proposal did not disappoint! 🥪 🍪 🥒
This semester DTE worked with two local businesses, LaBowls and Paleonardo’s, to help them solve some current challenges. Using design thinking, students came up with ideas/designs around improving their online marketing, advertising, the menu, and increasing return customers.

Our final visit to the Flying Spoon showed how each student used design thinking to help this local business improve a current problem or challenge. From social media, to interior design, to finances, each student presented a unique idea/design to the business owner.

Graphic design had their midterm performance assessment inspired by Shark Tank, and these 3 received the most investments from the “sharks” 🦈 (aka, their classmates!). A first aid app ⛑️, a machine to block noise pollution 📢 , and a better way to clean up after your dog 💩
I am so proud of my DTE students for competing in @PointParkU’s Pitch Competition! We had one team make it to the final round to share their pitch with the client: The Children’s Museum! 👏🏻
DTE visited Dupe’s Scoops to get feedback on our prototype designs and enjoy some tasty treats! 🍦 We’re ready to move into the final stages of Design Thinking for this project! 💡
It’s been a busy week in DTE meeting with our local business clients! Students presented protypes via @canva to share ideas for Muxie, and then learned about Dupe’s Scoops in an initial client meeting!
Congratulations to Brodi, Jaxon, Tucker, and Lyrical for being the Graphic Design fall photo contest winners!
DTE hosted our first guest speaker on entrepreneurship, local business owner, Mr. Paolina. Thank you for visiting our class today! We look forward to using our design thinking skills to work on some of the business challenges you gave us.
