How about students design for school?!We even put together a Student Designer How-To Kit so anyone can do it. PDF here:http://businessinnovationfactory.com/files/pdf/StudentsDesignForSchoolHo...

Great story. We've been using design-thinking and participatory design to give students the opportunity to re-think their own educational experiences. Much at the higher-ed level, but last year we applied it to the younger set.
I truly believe we need to do more to develop the capabilities of students to become innovators. And I know design can improve the quality of experience for students. More important though, students themselves should play an active role in education innovation. If we do that, we democratize our educational system.
