Teen Innovation Lab

October 12, 2026

Workshop/Seminars

This one-day, high-impact Teen Innovation Lab empowers students ages 13–17 to take control of their time, focus, and digital habits using design thinking, executive functioning strategies, and modern study skills. Through an interactive, Google-style sprint, teens will examine their daily routines, identify productivity roadblocks, and design a personalized “Design My Day Blueprint” — a practical plan for balancing schoolwork, screen time, activities, and downtime. Along the way, participants will learn research-backed strategies to improve focus, study more efficiently, and use technology (including AI tools) responsibly and effectively.
