Imagine: A program that empowers kids to use teamwork and creative thinking to solve a challenge developed by super genius space robots to teach about engineering, the arts, science and community service. A program that fosters friendly competition against teams from all over the world. Sounds too good to be true?
Well, okay, there are no super genius space robots. Yet.
But there is Destination Imagination!
We inspire and equip students to become the next generation of innovators and leaders.
We offer seven exciting standards-based Challenges in STEM, Improv, Visual Arts, Service Learning, and Early Learning. Each Challenge is open-ended and enables students (K-university) to learn and experience the creative process from imagination to innovation. In solving our Challenges, teams learn important 21st century skills that will prepare them for a brilliant future. Students have fun and gain confidence in their ability to solve any challenge.
Our program begins in early fall when the year’s Challenges are issued. Teams of up to seven students organize, choose their challenge and work for months honing their solution. Volunteer team managers (parents, teachers, etc.) facilitate the group, but cannot give technical or other assistance. Teams present their solutions at local and state tournaments, which narrow the field to about 15 teams from each state or international affiliate. These teams compete in the ultimate creativity showdown, Global Finals, each May.
Teams can be organized by school districts, a club, or even by a group of parents. Starting in the program is easy and inexpensive.
