Attributes
• Human Centered
• Iterative: It consists of 5 stages.

16. • Incremental and Scalable: Design
thinking is scalable and can be
applied incrementally to improve existing
ideas (such as how a service is delivered or
how a product performs for the user) or it can
be applied radically to create disruptive
solutions that meet the needs of people in
entirely new ways.

17. • Rational and Intuitive

observing six steps:
1. Identify Opportunity

26. Give opportunity to go wrong
Students should be encouraged in saying
“YES” when they agree and

from expressing their opinions and to search
alternative ideas which are important in
building prototypes.

user-centered
approach to problem
solving.
Empathy is key.

step-by-step
process that is
