Consult experts to learn more about the areas of concern and to gain an understanding of other people's experiences.
Analyze observations and data collected in order to identify the core problem.
Start looking for alternative ways of viewing the problem.
Create a model of your solution.
Want users to be able to try out your solutions for themselves.
What is design thinking?
When you think about designs
A way of building something
A method for creative problem solving
Steps for making lightbulbs

Design Thinking
Construct the design solution with proportions similar to the real-life final product.
Prototype
Ideas/ Brainstorm
Test
Refine
Think up ideas/ possible solutions by sketching, creating lists, having team conversations, etc.
Prototype

Refine
Identify the key questions being asked. Possibly ask questions and do background research as needed.
Test
Ideas/ Brainstorm
Understand the problem
Repeat
Conduct experiments with the prototype to test the design against identified variables in order to determine if flaws exist.

Based on test data, update the original design to improve stability, buoyancy, maximum weight capacity, etc.
Test

Design Thinking
A process for creative problem solving that is human-centered.
The process for creating and sharing ideas where yo use images and sketches instead of words to describe your idea.
When you put the prototype into action, get feedback, identify successes, and iterate.
Limitations or obstacles in your challenge.
Empathize
When you identify your materials, constraints, and how you will be successful.
A process for creative problem solving that is human-centered.
When you self-reflect on your experiences with the problem or challenge.
When you brainstorm ideas, get feedback, create an initial design, share the design, and iterate.
Ideate
To rapidly change.
When you create a 3D model of your design.
The process for creating and sharing ideas where you use images and sketches instead of words to describe your idea.
When you brainstorm ideas, get feedback, create an initial design, share the design, and iterate.
Iterate
To rapidly change.
When you brainstorm ideas, get feedback, create an initial design, share the design, and iterate.
The process for creating and sharing ideas where you use images and sketches instead of words to describe your idea.
When you brainstorm ideas, get feedback, create an initial design, share the design, and iterate.
Prototype

A process for creative problem solving that ishuman-centered.
When you create a 3D model of your design.
When you put your prototype into action, get feedback, identify successes, and iterate.
Which mindset does NOT fit with design thinking?
There is only one real solution.
Learn from failure.
Empathy.
Make your ideas tangible.
The phases of Design Thinking are generally in the following order:
Define, ideate, prototype, empathize, test
Ideate, define, empathize, prototype, test
Empathize, define, ideate, prototype test
Empathize, ideate, define, prototype, test
An iteration usually takes...
one day
a week
two weeks
As long/short as you do it.
At the end of the design thinking cycle it makes sense to:
Focus on improving your prototype.
Leave the target audience alone.
Generate lots of ideas.
No more testing.
With design thinking...
the designer is central
the product is central
the process is central
the end user is central
Design Thinking is a Linear Process, True or False?
TRUE
FALSE
