Through questions
These are some of the questions students, teachers and researchers thought about when they were asked to think about Imagination, Creativity, & Innovation. The purpose of these questions and, many more to come, is to heighten our awareness about ICI, to make something from ICI: to save a life, to craft a school for every single person…These questions make up part of our dreams…
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams...
