www.NEXT.cc considers design the 21st connection between art and science necessary for innovation and a sustainable future. The eco web explores what design is, what it does and why it is important through nine connected scales of activities- nano, pattern, object, space, architecture, neighborhood, urban, regional, world. College architecture and design students, working with architects, principals and K12 teachers, research topics, develop journeys and create standards based  informal learning activities that are engaging, fun and informational.  K-12 students, teachers, and families develop environmental advocacy writing, speaking, drawing, and modeling while exploring global museums, institutions, and contemporary practices.
