Children become more motivated to learn when what is presented to them reflects or simulates their own reality, providing a sense of authenticity to education. This article aims to analyse which studies have already been carried out in the scope of the use and teaching of Design Thinking for children in the school environment. In order to achieve this aim, a descriptive exploratory research was conducted, based on the integrative literature review, with the Scopus and Web of Science platforms as the basis. It was noticed that Design Thinking is a valuable tool for the empowerment of children and adolescents, as it stimulates empathy, communication, creativity, and the ability to analyse and solve problems. One point that should be drawn from the articles is that there is few formally structured materials on the use of Design Thinking as a pedagogical practice, which can hinder its more accelerated dissemination. Finally, although interventions are centred on children and adolescents, educators need to realize that they are the primary factor for transformation, through their involvement, dedication, and attitude. Therefore, they need to be qualified, aware of their role as facilitators, guiding in this collaborative journey of critical thinking, and problem-solving in an innovative and future-oriented way.
A Transformação Digital passa a tomar conta de todas as atividades da vida humana, principalmente agora, acelerada pela Crise Sanitária causada pela Pandemia do COVID-19. Obviamente o processo educacional não está fora disso, e deveria ser o primeiro a promover mudanças e implementar projetos nessa direção, especialmente no ensino superior. De fato, há várias iniciativas ocorrendo em dezenas universidades em todo o mundo. Este artigo apresenta um breve estudo do perfil de lideranças em instituições de ensino superior públicas do Brasil neste novo contexto que a transformação digital está trazendo para os diferentes setores da atividade humana e, particularmente, para a Educação. Este trabalho teve como objetivo determinar como contribuir com os líderes das universidades públicas na Era Digital?
