Students show off their prototypes

THE RESULT

Using a flipped classroom approach, we create a user centric design thinking course that shows points out the similarities of design thinking and business creation. To show lean startup methodology (fast iteration!) and the prototyping phase of the design process, we then lead the students in a prototype workshop.

 

By going through each stage of the design thinking process, students create a product (lego house or packaging peanut hat) for their client and iterate on it according to testing.
