In partnership with Dr. Janet Loebach of Cornell Human Ecology's Department of Human Centered Design, students at Fall Creek Elementary are co-designing their school's new playground.
In November 2023, students in Mr. Bell’s fifth-grade class presented their ideas for the playground to researchers, ICSD administrators, and Tetra Tech architects. Check out photos here!
In April 2024, Professor Loebach presented to the Board Facilities Committee on the co-design process with the Fall Creek students and their recommendations/design exemplars. View the presentation on YouTube (click here for the slideshow)
