This 3 Day Design Sprint was delivered to teenagers between the ages of 13 -18 to teach them how to quickly test ideas without writing a line of code. It has been adapted from Tom Lombardo's course from Fresh Tiled Soil.

10. Create your Prototypes!

11. Think Like a
Journalist.

12. Remember our 5 Tips on Interviewing Users
1. Keep it simple (language)
2. Open and not leading questions
3. Get users to speak through what they are
doing/ feeling/ seeing and thinking
4. Active listening: repeat and summarise back
5. Probe on clues and pauses

13. Plan the Interview
1. Pre-roll: Establish background questions
e.g. “how do you currently….”
2. Test: Determine which tasks to test prototype
e.g. “using this ____, try to….”
3. Post-roll: Wrap-Up questions
e.g. “how does this compare to how you do it
today?….”

14. Test with Users

15. Refine based on feedback

17. BE CURIOUS.
PROBE MORE.

18. Round 2: Test with Users

19. RETROSPECTIVE
What worked?
What was validated?
What did you learn?

21. OK, NOW WHAT?

22. LET’S REVIEW THE
MINDSET.

23. What mindsets have we developed?

27. Start with the problem,
not the solution.
