THE IMPORTANCE OF DESIGN

“… Mastery of Design … is now the main way for individuals and firms to stand out in a crowded marketplace” Daniel Pink

REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT

“PREPARE AND INSPIRE: K‐12 EDUCATION IN STEM FOR AMERICA’S FUTURE”

Executive Office of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology

2010 RECOMMENDATION:• “Provide programs and facilities that let students

DESIGN and CREATE their own devices and machines such as through access to sophisticated fabrication capabilities.”

DESIGN• Sketching• Teamwork• Engineering• CAD• Infusion of STEAM• Additive

Manufacturing (AM)

ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

• Through additive manufacturing, it will become technically feasible, economically viable, and commercially beneficial to locally produce goods that are person-specific, location specific, and/or event-specific.

• A new, thriving type of digitally-enabled physical-product entrepreneurship (digiproneurship) will emerge.
