Welcome to Mississippi Destination ImagiNation®

Mission

Mississippi Destination ImagiNation®, also known as Mississippi Advanced Problem Solvers (MAPS), shall nurture and develop creative problem solving skills and promote divergent thinking for all the participants in the MAPS Program. We will strive to teach self-respect, cooperation, teamwork, research skills, and creativity to our teams as they use their knowledge to travel uncharted paths and help make the world a better place in which to live.

 

What is Destination ImagiNation®?

The Destination ImagiNation® (or DI™) program is a process-based program grounded in sound creative problem solving theory that helps young people build lifelong skills in creative and critical thinking, teamwork, time management, and problem solving. Up to seven participants work together as a team for eight to twelve weeks to create their solution to a Team Challenge, which can have a focus that is theatrical, structural, improvisational, scientific or technical. Teams also learn and practice creative quick-thinking skills for the Instant Challenge portion of the program. Destination ImagiNation helps young people learn in a fun and supportive environment, and the valuable skills they’ve acquired will be with them for a lifetime.
