Congratulations! You have reached the end of the Teaching design thinking with digital technologies online course. After reading through all the course material and successfully completing the end-of-course quiz, a digital badge and a statement of participation will be emailed to you as confirmation you have achieved the learning objectives set for the course.

If you need more information about design thinking and the digital applications covered in this course you can visit the Exten(DT)² project website. The website is regularly updated with newsletters, teaching resources and publications that you may find useful when teaching.

Finally, please find the Exten(DT)² Framework that has been developed. The framework aims to identify crucial elements that support the teaching of design thinking using emerging technologies, and present them in a holistic manner. The intended users of this framework are teachers, educational designers, policymakers, and all educational stakeholders who may be interested in incorporating the teaching of design thinking using emerging technologies into their practices.

We would really like to hear about your experiences of using digital technologies for design thinking in teaching! If you want to reach us, email: extendt2@gmail.com.

We really hope you enjoyed this course – it would be appreciated if you could provide feedback – it shouldn’t take more than 3 minutes.
