Student Design Master Classs

Design Master Class
Randvere Kool from Estonia and a partner school in southern Poland, Liceum Ogólnokształcące im. prof. Zbigniewa Religi w Zabrzu, have joined forces for an 
Erasmus project. The goal is to educate selected 20 students in entrepreneurship 
and to start a student company. Estonian students are 6-7 grade (13-14yo), 
and Polish students are 10-11 grade (16-18y). The older students are expected 
to be team leaders and drive the process.

With the Masterclass they will gain skills for, how they can map out their idea, 
their vision and translate that into a business road map with online workshops 
and trainings.
A homework video initiated the whole process explaining what is to be expected and introduction to Design Thinking and use that to kick start their product idea and generate a simple Business Model Canvas.
4 workshops lasting 2 months has been conducted, 3 online, last one where final presentations and students and teachers voting for the one idea to establish the student company, has been in Estonia, Tallinn as host of Randvere Kool.

Workshops had topics and Miro hands-on team work on:

 - Finding stakeholders
 - Understanding who are users and creating a persona
 - Define what Jobs-to-be-Done
 - As homework validate our findings and get insights about the research
 
 - Find our values for customers using BAIN pyramid and define how to
   deliver each value
 - Explore how to deliver the value by researching how others do it within or
   without the sector of our own idea using Lotus Blossom.

 - Understanding the service flow to articulate what we need interaction with users
 - As a section of our service flow we have investigated and created digital prototype
   of our sales channel and tested with another team.

 - As final workshop I have summarised the whole process, and tell how to 
express the idea clearly and how the final pitch should be set, what are 
the techniques, do's and dont's. And they have presented their final pitch with 
2 minute time constrain. It was absolutely great to be conducting these workshops
and teaching kids the way of not only thinking entrepreneurial but being smart consumers who can understand the work behind every product, every advertisement, every service they have encounter with.
