<p>If you're focusing on Unit 3, we suggest you complete Step 5: Develop Action Plan (Prototype) and Peer Feedback by May 24, 2018, 11:59 PM UTC. If you're spending equal time on Units 2 and 3, submit your deliverable for Step 5: Develop Action Plan (Prototype) so you have enough time to iterate based on your classmates' feedback. </p>
<p>Suggested due date for completed assignment: <strong>April 22, 2019 11:59 PM UTC</strong></p>

<p></p>
<p><strong>This assignment requires you to identify a systemic challenge, imagine new solutions, and develop a plan for the future.</strong> We encourage you to engage with various stakeholders, with <strong>students as your primary users</strong>, to prototype and test ideas with colleagues, and to continue work on your action plan after the course is over. </p>

<p>As in Units 1 and 2, the multiple steps of the assignment will be interspersed with video content. However, in Unit 3, the videos are not intrinsically linked to each step. Instead, the interspersing is designed to help you have a comfortable flow between active work and video viewing. Remember that you have choice and flexibility regarding how you approach Units 2 and 3. We encourage you to engage with the material in the way that is most useful for you.</p>
