"Design Thinking is a great skill for students to acquire as part of their education. But it is one process like the problem-solving model or the scientific method. As a step-by-step process, it becomes type of box. Sometimes we need to go beyond that box; step outside of the box. This post provides an overview of design thinking, the problems with design thinking, and suggestions to hacking the world to go beyond design thinking."
Beth Dichter's insight:
If you are looking for a variety of information on Design Thinking this post is for you. Gestein share many resources including: * An Introduction to Design Thinking, a Facilitator's Guide with a script, talking points, takeaways, and set-up considerations (available from Scribd) * A slideshare presentation "Design is hacking how we learn (presented at AIGA Into the Woods 2012) * links to a variety of articles, including "The d.school's Virtual Crash Course of Design Thinking" She also discusses some of the problems with Design Thinking, once again providing links several articles. She shares views from people in business who have turned Design Thinking " into a linear, gated, by-the-book methodology that delivered, at best, incremental change and innovation." She expresses concerns that this may also happen in education. The final section of her post looks at hacking, but with a different flavor than we often read. A number of definitions of hacking are provided and one is below: "In developing hacking as a skill, an attitude, and/or as an approach to construct and de-construct the world, it is more than just hacking in terms of computer science. In order to hack the world, we need to tear it apart, deconstruct it and analyze its components parts and how they operate in relation to one another within various systems. This is a mental, social, emotional, and whenever possible, a physical process." Challenge yourself to read this post. Chances are you will come away with some new ideas.
