"This resource is designed to help you understand the mission and vision of EPICS as well as provide resources to learning communities to begin the journey to provide Real Design for Real People" (EPICS K-12). The website includes a video testimonial by students in a school who participated in the EPICS program within their school, their curriculum, and many teacher resources to inspire design thinking and to get students to innovate (after school curriculum is provided as well). The curriculum is FREE to use. Kevin Jarrett, teacher, blogger and EPICS K-12 user, says that EPICS K-12 has a "massive library of resources, including fully editable and customizable documents teachers can use to plan projects."
