Module 7 Explorers

Jun 20, 2019 at 10:38 AM by Honor Moorman

Reflect on your learning from Module 7 and respond to the following questions:

  • How will you guide students in using Social Innovation Resources including the tools for Identifying Root Causes, Theory of Change diagram, Asset Map, and/or Elevator Pitch to support the planning, implementation, and evaluation of their social innovation projects?
  • How will you help students find or create a support network for their social innovation projects? 

Please read and respond to at least 1 of your colleagues’ reflections.

Next, you can level up to Module 7 Investigator, or jump ahead to Module 8.

To guide my students, I would use: TEACH - PRACTICE- APPLY. I will also  have them journal , I have found it helps in becoming a critical and innovative thinker. Writing will also support the students with their outcomes.

I would research my students project, find and share resources for creating.  I would help ensure my students develop needs skills to be successful with their project.

Initial Post


I would guide my students by having them follow a structured approach that helps them understand the significance of each tool and how it ties into planning, implementation, and evaluation of social innovation. I could show some examples of successful social innovation projects to highlight the importance of strategic planning and impact evaluation.

I could help my students identify potential mentors, such as educators and point them to local non-profits  that share similar goals.

I like this approach! Using the TEACH - PRACTICE - APPLY framework will help guide your students through the process of learning and applying new skills.
