THE CENTRAL METHOD

BUILD the way forward.

Five memorable actions turn a school problem into a useful first version—and keep the work moving after launch.

  1. 01B

    Begin

    One person. One frustration. One useful task.

    Begin with a real problem
  2. 02U

    Understand

    Clarify who it is for, what they need and what good looks like.

    Understand the need
  3. 03I

    Iterate

    Try it. Notice the mismatch. Explain it again.

    Iterate with confidence
  4. 04L

    Launch

    Your MVP, the Minimum Viable Product: a working link is the finish line.

    Launch a useful first version
  5. 05D

    Develop

    Listen to users. Improve. Inspire the next builder.

    Develop it with others

THE LIVE BUILD · THE ROOM HELPS CHOOSE

One problem. A working link.
