Transcript
Building future digital skills through a unique online entrepreneurship & design-thinking programme
Lumi's mission is to develop one million changemakers, entrepreneurs and tech innovators and to create a global network that accelerates their impact
Lumi's mission
Students develop tech-enabled solutions to real-world problems whilst building and developing critical skills for the future
Digital-first, scalable programme with the potential to run Quests with multiple, different schools and with young people globally
Lumi's Quest programme: a structured design-thinking led journey designed by a Stanford University professor
Students can win formal certification from Stanford-affiliated design-thinking institution Singapore BioDesign
Live, online facilitated sessions by design-thinking-trained students and near-peers from top universities across the world (Harvard, Minerva, UCL, University of Cambridge etc.)
Design-Driven Entrepreneurship Responsible Human-AI collaborationEffective Knowledge Acquisition
Preparing young people to become future-ready:beyond education and into real life
Lumi develops three essential skills for a changing worldwhilst nurturing social entrepreneurship:
By working with gifted students from low socio-economic backgrounds, we can make a bigger impact to narrow the digital divide and address underrepresented groups in the tech industry
There is a clear intersection of interest between students studying Further Maths and Computer Science & Digital Technology
Students receive formal certification in Design Thinking from Singapore Biodesign (Stanford University affiliated) to help them stand out on personal statements when applying to universities
Develops critical employability skills such as collaborative problem-solving, resilience, leadership, confidence, empathy and taking the initiative
Develops digital skills (UX design, wireframing, use of low- and no-code software, tech collaboration and AI tools)
Why should Further mA*ths students join a Lumi Quest?
Benchmarks 4 & 5
A shareable digital credential that evolves with time and showcases:
- A real time spider-web of skills built through one or many Quests
- Links to prototypes of innovations developed during the Quest/s
- Prestigious certifications & awards obtained via Lumi
Singapore Biodesign Certificate(affiliated to Stanford University)
Soon, each participant will have a Lumi Passport that captures skills development as a unique and verifiable credential for the future
Congratulation on becoming a global maker!

ADVANCED QUESTTest launch, showcase,apply to competitions
INTERMEDIATE QUESTBuild a tech-enabled prototype targeting the chosen problem
PRIMARY QUESTCreate a storyboard to solve a large global problem (based on SDGs)
Further develop prototype with expert help
Evaluate ideas & build wireframe
Select a specific problem- conduct interviews
Research a global problem
Enter the Lumiverse
Develop plan to launch an idea IRL
Take formal assessment to obtain certificate
Create a prototype using in game low code tools
Showcase to potential sponsors
Apply to global contests
PROTOTYPE, ITERATE
EXPLORE, SYNTHESISE
INVESTIGATE, IDEATE
Intermediate Quest
- Design and implement user testing scenarios
- Refine solution using initial user feedback
- Develop a more robust solution
- Get targeted & intensive expert help where needed
Teams bring their ideas to life with the latest technology
- Collaboratively develop /code the solution e.g. an app, website, chatbot etc.
- Design the logo, UX and build content
- Publish the prototype app among friends, family and school for real feedback
The quest divides into smaller teams of 3-4 "Luminaries"
- Brainstorm around the needs statements
- Validate idea through first hand surveys & research
- Identify key components of one's solution
- Develop the storyboard
- Research the global challenge and develop a global, fact based view
- Interview members of the community to gain deeper insights
- Understand personas - people experiencing the problem
- Generate precise needs statements
Key Outputs
The programme offers flexible 1 or 2 hour sessions in each Quest, delivered weekly or as a condensed hackathon

How the Quest could be delivered
For Discussion
IMPERIAL RECRUITS further ma*ths students
LUMI PROVIDES HIGHLY TRAINED FACILITATORS (NEAR-PEERS)
Imperial to ensure tech readiness
Lumi facilitators are university students from around the world, vetted and trained by Lumi in design-thinking, digital and AI tools, online group facilitation, low-code product development and safeguarding
Young people from Imperial's Further mA*ths Online Programme programme to join the Quests. We suggest this could be circa 50 students in the first instance.
Participants need to have:- Stable WiFi connection
- Access to Zoom
- Access to Lumi's learning platform
- Headphones (if in a shared space)
