Design thinking and problem-based learning are becoming increasingly popular in the elementary school setting, but how do we introduce students to this process? In Zom-Be a Design Thinker, Zip the Zombie takes students through the Design Thinking process using human-centered design. As they read and learn, elementary-age students will learn skills that they will use for life!

With rhyme, cute illustrations, interactive augmented reality experiences and digital downloads--such as coloring sheets and an online class that prompts students to create in multiple realities--this book is a great way to introduce design thinking and future technologies to your children at home or in the classroom.
