Design thinking - Storytelling to solve the problem 

 Challenge : 

 To understand elements that lead to success in higher education among first generation and   low - income students . 

 Selection : 

 Listening to and empathizing with their needs , I gained enormous ​insights into the types of 

 support services​ and ​mentoring​ first gens feel will help them navigate the academic and social 

 challenges they face from the time they complete high school throughout college . Anxiety and 

 bewilderment are patterns of behavior I found among first generation low - income students when 

 they share stories about their first encounter with campus culture . Many feel like outsiders , 

 confused by the academy ’s social and academic expectations . 

 Application : 

 I start mind mapping about The social isolation , low self - confidence , and academic paralysis 

 generated by these feelings seem to melt away among first generation / low - income students 

 who study abroad . Why ? What happens when they and their middle- and upper - middle class 

 peers travel to countries and experience unfamiliar cultures and languages ? ​Reports ​document 

 changes in behaviour among first generation / low - income students : an increase in confidence , 

 self - efficacy , openness , perceptual acuity , resilience — general effectiveness in cross - cultural 

 situations . 

 Insight : 

 Are these trends anecdotal or are we really on to something ? Does study abroad add value to 

 the college experience of first generation / low - income students in ways that are fundamentally 

 different from their middle- and upper - middle class peers ? 

 Approach : 

 I will interview first generation / low - income students who have studied abroad and capture their 

 stories . I believe that listening with empathy is the first step toward explaining these unexplained 

 transformations .
