THEME:
Creating Innovative Ecosystems for Learning and Work
The LEXICON Purpose
- Facilitate ecosystem connections to enable a more interconnected approach to workforce development and employment/opportunity creation pathways for youth
- Equip and enable the ecosystem of learning innovators with tools for problem-solving, innovation, and collaboration to generate interdisciplinary, relevant, and viable solutions for the evolving marketplace
Who is this for?
Innovation Challenge Focus areas
A key highlight of LEXICON is creating space for participants to engage in collaborative problem-solving and foster relationships. We, therefore, have designed Innovation challenge areas where diverse participants can identify and collaborate to solve for a specific problem statement. The hope is that not only is the process enjoyable and rewarding but that the resulting initial prototypes and ideas can be further developed for implementation. The 4 innovation challenge areas with further problem statements are:
Entrepreneurship Education
Wellbeing in Learning
Equity-centered Learning
Education Technology (EDTech)
