DESIGN THINKING FOREDUCATORS

Design Thinking applies the tools and processes from the design disciplines (architecture, landscape architecture,

interior design, graphic design, product design, apparel design

and others) to solve problems.

IDEO Shopping Cart Design5 day Shopping Cart Challenge

An experienced design thinker maintains a mindset which

instinctively reframes problems into opportunities.

Design Thinking ProcessAdapted from Stanford d.school and designthinkingforeducators.com

DIVERGENCE AND CONVERGENCEThe Process Visualized

DISCOVERYObserve. Engage. Immerse.

Assume a Beginner’s MindsetEmpathy requires intentional Observation

Tactic: InterviewsEncourage stories, observe emotion & body language, ask why?

Activity: Sources of Inspiration

•Imagine Interesting people to meet• Who are the most motivated students, parents,

colleagues, friends you know?

•Imagine the Extremes• Who are the least motivated students, parents,

colleagues, friends you know?

•What are some activities that will allow you to gather information about their intrinsic motivations?

Select Participants

•What are some specific characteristics?• Quiet child• Dedicated administrator• Gender/ethnicities/ages

•Plan your logistics• Survey, Face to Face Interviews, Writing Prompts

•Build a Question Guide• No Yes/No Questions• Encourage Storytelling “Tell me about….”

Tactic: Analogous Inspiration MapsCreate inspiration boards for insights

Create an Analogous Inspiration Board

•Where do we find spaces where students are intrinsically motivated?•What do these spaces look like?

•Quotes•Photos•Books•Ideas

INTERPRETATIONSearching for Insights & Scope a Challenge

Tactic: Story Share and CaptureUnpack Observations and Get Team Members up to Speed

Tactic: Saturate and GroupOrganize information & Synthesize Data

Tactic: Empathy MapCreate a Deep Understanding of the User

Tactic: Empathy Map

Say Do

Think Feel

Say/Do/Think/Feel

Tactic: Composite Character ProfileFocus on Salient and Relevant Characteristics of the Composite Character

Next StepsAs you fully discover and define the problem you want to solve, move into the idea generation or brainstorming stage

IDEATIONDefer Judgment. Go for Quantity. Get wild.

TACTIC: Write It, Say It, Slam It (Warm Up)Think of ways that you could improve the modern vehicle.

Tactic: Attribute ListingList shape, texture, feel, size, details. What is 1 attribute you might change/add/remix?

Tactic: SCAMPERSubstitute, Combine, Adapt, Modify, Put 2 another use, Eliminate, Reverse

Tactic: Brain WritingWrite three ideas. Pass it on. Build on what others have written.

Tactic: Harvest: Cluster & VoteCluster ideas into themes. Write the theme on one large post-it. Vote (using the small round stickers) on 2 of your favorite themes.

EXPERIMENTATION (PROTOTYPING)

Time to get those ideas out of your head and into your hands.

Tactic: Testing with UsersTake your idea and remix a current lesson plan.

TACTIC: Prototype to TestWhat do you hope to test with the users? What sorts of behaviors do you expect? How will you gather feedback?

WHAT WILL STICK WITH YOU AFTER THIS SESSION TODAY?

Before you leave…

Thanks for being crazy.
