The gist of this class is that the stigma around "failure" as a terrible thing is out of sync with understanding creativity and innovation. For your project, share something of yours that's "failed" and 3-5 sentences on what you learned from the failure – what was the unintended learning outcome that surprised you?
Project Specs
- Share your project in any medium you'd like – sketched, filmed, written, photographed, screenshot.
Examples
- This could be a failed project at work, a relationship that didn't work out, that time you tried a new recipe for dinner and it went wrong. No matter the size or scale, there's always something you can learn from.
- Check out my own example project for this class. It only took me 5 minutes to put this together, it doesn't take long :)
Additional Resources
- Our inspiration for the project of this class came from Tina Seelig. Learn more in this Fast Company article about how she uses the assignment with her students.
