Dyson School of Design Innovation

The ingenious inventor and designer James Dyson has just announced a new school that will open doors to young minds in September 2008 in Bath England. "The Dyson School of Design Innovation: UK’s first National Centre of Excellence for design, engineering, and enterprise will be the first of it's kind to encourage and facilitate Britain's next generation of engineers, designers, inventors, and entrepreneurs. I've got a soft spot for engaging and introducing kids to the wonderful world of innovation and design especially after seeing Sir Ken Robinson speak about how creativityy should be just as important as literacy" in today's world. I was never exposed to design until college and have high hopes for kids being exposed to the creative, goofy, and energizing world of design from a young age. If I learned and knew about making prototypes, models, sketching, and design in high school....my goosh, that would rock!
