Cardboard Classroom

A Design-Thinking Guide for Elementary Teachers (The best educators’ resource for design thinking with comprehensive examples)

About this book

A design-minded teacher facilitates learning that is flexible, creative, and collaborative—with a healthy mix of critical thinking, trial and error, failure, and success. In The Cardboard Classroom, authors Doug Robertson and Jennifer Borgioli Binis offer practical guidance and sample projects developed from Robertson's authentic classroom experiences to help you find space for this engaging approach to instruction in your daily practice.


Elementary educators will:
  • Discover why design thinking is more the identity of the teacher than instructional strategy
  • Learn how design-minded teaching advances student learning and improves engagement
  • Study real-world examples and experiences of the design process in action
  • Receive comprehensive examples of projects you can utilize and adapt to fit your classroom's needs
  • Obtain reproducible tools and templates to enhance your understanding of the material
