About Destination ImagiNation
Destination ImagiNation engages young people from preschool through university level with the promise of creating their own unique solutions to a variety of Challenges. In solving a Challenge, the teams learn and apply new skills, interdisciplinary knowledge and critical and creative thinking skills while having fun as a team. Each Challenge can be directly connected to national educational learning standards and to the Washington State Learning Standards and Goals, particularly Goals Three and Four:
Goal Three: Think analytically, logically, and creatively, and integrate experience and knowledge to form reasoned judgments and solve problems.
Goal Four: Understand the importance of work and how performance, effort, and decisions directly affect future career and educational opportunities.
Each Challenge can also be directly connected to STEM education goals. The Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Education Coalition works to support STEM programs for teachers and students at the U. S. Department of Education, the National Science Foundation, and other agencies that offer STEM related programs. Click here to see how each DI Challenge supports STEM education goals.
