Recent years have seen the emergence of design-thinking and maker learning initiatives across formal and informal learning environments. A variety of offerings, from museum and afterschool programs, to STEM challenges and entrepreneurship courses, create opportunities for young people to develop skills relevant to today's workplace. Design-based learning emphasizes the importance of creative problem-solving, taking perspective and empathizing, identifying problems worth solving, and iterating on solutions. Yet despite high relevance to 21st century workforce demands, opportunities for young people to engage long-term in design-based experiences remain limited. With the support of HP and Microsoft, Digital Promise Global's Learning Studios program brought enhanced design-based learning opportunities to teachers and students in 60 schools in the US and abroad. The Learning Studios program provided advanced technology, design-based learning resources, and an online teacher community to participating sites, and the first implementation spanned the 2016-17 school year. To capture and share outcomes and insights from the Learning Studio implementation project with the larger community, an exploratory research component was included as well. This report presents the key outcomes of that research, and is organized in four main sections: (1) Details on project resources and implementation; (2) How the research was organized and the ways that data were gathered and analyzed; (3) Key thematic findings across survey, interview and focus group data; and (4) Reflections on opportunities for additional research and recommendations for future implementations of Learning Studios and other design-based education programs.
