A high school student reflects on what Futures Problem Solving has done for her
Hi everyone—My name is Olivia Zhu, and I’m currently a senior at the Harker School. I was asked to talk a little about what all of my classmates right now are suffering through: those dreaded college applications. More importantly, I wanted to talk about how the Future Problem Solving Program impacted my entire high school experience.
8th Grader reflects on how FPS has helped her solve real world problems
Hi. My name is Morgan and I’m an eighth grader here at the Nueva School. This is my fourth year doing Future Problem Solving.
Within a Futures Bowl, there are Six Steps. I normally write the Step Six within my team’s bowl. The Step Six is the action plan saying how you will solve the underlying problem. You must think of how to come up with the most unique, futuristic, creative, and effective solution to a problem.
