Synopsis

From The Author:

Read any school’s mission statement and you will probably discover each strives to prepare students for the world that awaits them after their educational journey. This is a world full of experiences and challenges which are outside the comfort zones of many of our students. All of this will require specific skills and traits which are often overlooked by our current, result-oriented, education system. Discomfort by Design takes you on an entertaining and inspirational journey through a process of stepping out of our comfort zones both in and outside of the classroom. Along the way, Discomfort by Design fosters essential skills in all of us, promotes critical thinking and problem-solving, and encourages us to pursue becoming a better version of ourselves. It’s a life-changing message and process that every student, teacher, administrator, and parent needs to experience.

Editorial Reviews:

If you want to see the real face of education — the one fraught with challenges and setbacks yet leads to inspiration — this book is for you. Chad LeDune shares his own discomfort and how it helped him improve as an educator. You'll learn about design learning and a framework for creating meaningful learning. It is Discomfort by Design, something Chad has earned and freely shares in these pages!

In Discomfort by Design, Chad has given educators simple ideas to build a culture of learning based on design thinking in any school. This book will help you rethink what you value in education, inspire you to take hold of every day as a chance to grow, and challenge you to redesign learning to go beyond buzzwords & technology.

To truly educate our children, we must provide an atmosphere that enables them to take risks in their thinking. In his innovative yet extremely practical and straightforward book, Discomfort by Design, Chad LeDune shows us how we can motivate, engage, and inspire students to take ownership of their learning and become critical thinkers. He explains how this is effectively implemented at every level and how the design process is essential in and out of an educational setting. I especially appreciate the SEL connection and the way Chad uses his own personal experiences to bring his very strong and much-needed wisdom to life. A must-read for anyone looking to challenge others, promote problem-solving, and be personally inspired!
