The document discusses key learnings from a design thinking course. The first key takeaway is that the individual learned to apply a design thinking approach to problem solving and decision making which enhances the process. The second takeaway discusses how prototyping possible solutions to problems is an extraordinary approach. The third takeaway discusses learning about problems of school-to-work transitions globally and finding bright ideas and prototypes to address issues through peer interactions.

3. Key takeway #1
Before taking this course I really
did not have this kind of
approach. Now when I have to
solve different problems, I think
how to apply design thinking to
enhance the process of decision
making and get much better
results. To me, it is the major
takeway.

4. Key takeway #2
Absolutely amazing project. I have
never seen anything like this.
When you encounter problems, it is
really wonderful to think about
related opportunities. Beyond that
prototyping some possible
solutions is something
extraordinary. What I wish is to
develop a similiar approach to
everyday problems.

5. Key takeway #3
This course gave me a chance to
see the problems of school-to-
work transition around the world.
In addition, I have found some
really bright ideas and interesting
prototypes designed to address
those problems. I’ve learned a lot
through these assignments and
peer-to-peer interactions.

6. My Process Map
Constant feedback to previous parts...

7. Reflection: Start Small
Going back to job in a week period I think
how to apply design thinking for the program
development problem. I want to get deep
into the underlying problems, understand
the situation at my company and what is the
most important – I will do my best to define
the problems correctly that will direct us to
the right pool of solutions.

8. Build on the first ideas
After having formed the problem
statement, me and my team members will
brainstorm, we will think about plenty of
solutions. Evaluation and selection process
will follow to choose the most appropriate
keys to solving the problem. We will design
prototypes on some of the selected
solutions. Hopefully, this process will be
fruitful and successful.
