Fase:Præsentation og formidling

Step 1: Empathize

Share a true story, for example, Gisel shared a letter written by a 9-year-old girl about her sister with Down syndrome and autism.
The students read the letter and analyzed it in groups to evaluate how to act in response to the problem.
Adults with different conditions were invited to speak with the students to learn more about the problem.

Step 2: Define

Students researched inclusion in their school and town.
They worked in groups to ask questions, take pictures, and gather information.
Findings were presented to the class.

Step 3: Ideate

After presentations, students brainstormed ideas to take action in their school.
Three main ideas were developed:
Music for a Cause: Changing lyrics of a song to promote inclusion.
Pictograms at school: Using visual aids to improve communication.
Changing desks and chairs: Modifying furniture to be more inclusive.

Step 4: Prototype y test

By proposing more than one solution to the problem, they developed more than one prototype, such as:
The students wrote a special song together.
They collected 230 tennis balls, which would be used to adapt desks and chairs.
They met with local government officials to plan pictograms that will facilitate visual learning for children with disabilities.

Step 5: Presentation

The project was shared with the school and community.
A special opening was held to showcase their work and raise awareness.
The project reached autism institutions, local news channels, health institutions, and the local government.
Students presented their ideas to other schools for replication.
