The Einstein Project

~ “I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious.” - Albert Einstein

The “Einstein Project” is a framework that is  designed to help you find a solution to an everyday problem that makes you passionate in your thinking and designing. This project is designed to make you think outside of the box as active learners and create solutions in uncommon ways, forget about failing or succeeding and take chances. Learn from your failures and create opportunities to succeed with the new knowledge that you have! Use the Design Thinking infographic below to help form your ideas.
