What an “Ah-Hah” Moment of Design Thinking Looks Like

Innovation takes time; it can be messy and uncomfortable, and there are times when even the keenest designer-thinker might well ask “are we ever going to get ‘there’?”  And then there is that moment of “ah-hah!”, when the expansive thinking, discovery, research, brainstorming, and idea maps snap into focus.  At the Tilton School, I am assisting the community in a long range path of design, discovery, and innovation, and they just experienced one of those “ah-hah” moments, ready now to distill a wealth of discovery into finite problems for which they will prototype powerful solutions.  Your school can do this, too!
