core / QFP

Question, explore, prototype, test, present.

The method keeps innovation training from becoming vague terminology. Every project has a question, exploration plan, prototype, test, presentation, and revision path.

QFP progression pathway visual
01

Question

Students define the problem, audience, constraint, and learning question before choosing tools.

02

Explore

They collect sources, observe examples, compare ideas, and map possible approaches.

03

Prototype

They build a first version that another person can inspect, test, and discuss.

04

Test

They compare evidence, run trials, record feedback, and identify claims the project cannot support yet.

05

Present

They turn the work into a concise demo, poster, brief, or presentation with sources and next steps.

06

Reflect

Every review ends with a revision list and a stronger question.

Outcomes

Outputs make the learning visible.

Every QFP page points visitors toward work that can be reviewed: notes, prototypes, briefs, slides, and revision history.
