Design thinking refers to creative strategies designers use during the process of designing.It has also been developed as an approach to resolve issues outside of professional design practice, such as in business and social contexts.
The document describes the Social Studio, which uses a multi-disciplinary approach led by a design mentor to work on business-relevant projects through an innovative product development process. Students learn by designing and presenting iterations of their work, and receiving feedback from mentors and each other in order to improve through productive critique and reflection, while developing teamwork and communication skills by working together across disciplines and cultures.
This document discusses Design Thinking, which is a process that helps create user-centric and efficient product development. It involves empathizing to deeply understand user challenges, defining the problem to solve, ideating potential solutions, prototyping solutions to test, and continually improving the design based on testing. Some major companies like Microsoft, PepsiCo, Nike, and Apple apply Design Thinking to understand customer needs and create demanded products and services by exploring multiple solutions.
Dr. StrangeDev discusses how, as developers, they must think like designers to stay relevant in today's economy. The document provides tips for developers to master basic design principles, such as using color theory tools and design publications, to collaborate effectively with designers and improve the user experience. It encourages starting with the basics and provides contact information for Jordan McCullough to help developers make a shift towards more design-oriented work.

The document discusses human-centered design and how user experience design should be focused on understanding users and designing experiences based on how people think and work. It provides guidance on concepts like only presenting necessary information, using images over words when possible, reducing choices to minimize decision time, and providing feedback to guide desirable behaviors. The document also includes examples of good and poor UI design practices.
The document discusses gamification and argues that it is not simply a technological solution or product feature, but rather a process of structuring and redesigning socio-material contexts. It notes that gamification tends to devolve when not approached as an iterative design process, and that perceived controlling feedback can thwart autonomy and motivation, whereas informing feedback supports competence. The document advocates designing gamification not just as an artefact but as a context, and questions who decides whether resulting activities are experienced as autonomous and play.

It can be taught in art classrooms by having students work on collaborative design projects addressing real-world scenarios.
Using Co-creation to Make Design Solutions that Work (EuroIA 2013, Edinburgh)Koen Peters
As UX designers, simply crafting a beautiful solution and presenting it well is not enough. Getting it accepted by and sold to a client is the true challenge! The best way to do this is involving your client directly in the design process and having him co-create the solution.
Human-centered design is an approach that places the user's needs at the center of problem solving. It involves gaining a deep understanding of users through direct interaction and observation rather than making assumptions. By developing empathy for users, designers can create solutions that are desirable to users, feasible to implement, and viable as a business so as to have real impact.
Disrupting the Disruptors #1- Tackling Disruption through Human Centred DesignHolly Rennie
Wednesday 16th of November - Davy Rennie, Experience Design Director at The White Agency, presents Disrupting the Disruptors.
Today, we are constantly reminded about global brands being disrupted by new entrants to their market and non-traditional competitors. Businesses like Tesla, Uber, AirBinb, Dollar Shave Club and Spotify have changed the way we engage with day to day brands - these disruptors leverage customer centricity and leading edge digital solutions to challenge the norm and deliver extraordinary customer experiences and growth. How might we, as professionals across all sectors, challenge disruption and leverage Human Centred Design to stimulate growth and place our customers in the centre of everything we do.

The document discusses adapting a brainstorming activity using a Smart Board by having students create virtual post-it notes with their ideas and iteratively arrange them on the Smart Board to develop solutions. Students will be tasked with iterating on a topic by generating content for their post-it notes on the Smart Board and arranging them to create solutions. The adaptation aims to allow students to iteratively brainstorm using a technology they are familiar with to develop groundbreaking solutions.
How did design achieve such a primary roleDasru Pertama
Samsung recognized the importance of design through its chairman Kun-Hee Lee. He stated that a company's most vital assets are its design and creative capabilities. This led Samsung to undergo two design revolutions. The first involved hiring design advisors and focusing on unique designs reflecting Samsung's philosophy. The second revolution viewed design as a way to communicate with customers and bring society together. As a result of emphasizing design, Samsung was able to create remarkable products and become the world's number one in key industries like memory, phones, and TVs.
The document discusses using LEGO SERIOUS PLAY methodology to facilitate understanding between groups. It involves using LEGO bricks to build 3D models that represent ideas, helping participants communicate concepts in a hands-on, engaging way. This strengthens collaboration by promoting listening, constructive dialogue, and shared understanding. The methodology allows groups to creatively develop solutions to complex problems and ensure common insights and focus.
Prototyping is an essential part of the design process that involves building rough, rapid, and disposable versions of a product or service to validate ideas, generate new ideas, and gain a deeper understanding of user needs through feedback. Effective prototypes come in many forms, from physical models and storyboards to role playing and diagrams, and should be used to answer specific questions about desirability, usefulness, usability, viability or feasibility. Gathering feedback from a variety of stakeholders helps uncover blind spots and refine prototypes.
The document discusses reviving empathy between employers and employees. It notes that a rift has grown between producers and consumers, as well as leaders and employees. Empathy and understanding other people's needs can lead to interesting solutions and meeting needs in unexpected ways can surprise and delight. The author advocates giving employees agency and a voice in their work lives so their needs can be better expressed and met. This recalls how most things were made throughout human history.
Exercises to adapt Design Culture in your organisation Gokul Rangarajan
Design Culture has been talked much but it changes from organization to organization, here are some tangible activities to setup design culture in day to day office life
This document outlines the agenda for Day II of an Experience Design seminar at Hyper Island in 2016. The morning session will go deeper into experience design and include a UX case study of the Marine Museum. After lunch, participants will work on journey mapping and generating insights from their research. They will then present their findings. The agenda includes time for teamwork, research, mapping the user experience, and developing insights and presentations. The goal is to further skills in experience design tools like the 5E model, journey mapping, and developing actionable insights from user research.
Design thinking is a process, not a product. It involves thinking beyond tasks to understand people's lives, challenges, dreams, and journeys. Good design tells a story through simple details. Innovation results from empathizing with users through the design thinking process, which when done right can have lasting impact.
