Wisconsin Destination Imagination®: CREATING THE NEXT GENERATION OF INNOVATORS
DI participants gain skills needed for success in every aspect of life!
WIDI is a creativity-focused, non-profit program that prepares students for a rapidly evolving future. DI does this through a project-based learning experience applying the creative process across seven different challenge types— Technical, Scientific, Fine Arts, Improvisational, Engineering, Service Learning, and Early Learning.
65% of today's students will be employed in jobs that don't exist yet!
We don't know what these jobs will look like, but we do know the skills that these future leaders and innovators will need. That's where Destination Imagination comes in!
The DI Challenge Experience
The Challenge Experience is DI's flagship program for pre-K, K-12, and university students.
Teams develop solutions to project-based STEAM challenges and then present their solutions live at tournaments.
DI Challenges are the prompts or guidelines for what a team creates.
The Challenges are open-ended, allowing teams to express themselves creatively and take full ownership of their solutions.
Challenges are designed to teach the creative process—a system of learning that is at the root of innovation and a child’s ability to bring an idea to life.
Destination Imagination® (DI) is:
- Project Based
- 100% Student Driven
- STEAM Focused
