Refer to the example provided.

Post your thoughts on the following questions.

1) Compare the design thinking principles with the D&T design process in D&T or Art Inquiry Process. What are the similarities and differences in the stages?

2) What are some knowledge, skills, values, attitudes and dispositions that a designer/entrepreneur/artist need in order to thrive in the industry?

More than ever, design has proven to be the game-changer across many sectors including business, tech, banking, finance and healthcare.

By 2025, an estimated 85,000 design jobs will be in the non-design sector. Have an aesthetics eye for product design, or have the desire to be equipped with critical and inventive thinking skills and awareness of design trends and movements in a rapidly transforming technological world?

This is the Learning Journey to go for! This dynamic workshop merges design thinking principles, hands-on experimentation and AI tools to enhance creativity and problem-solving. Through iterative design processes, students embrace failure as a stepping stone to future success, challenging conventional thinking and refining their innovative ideas in the dynamic realm of product innovation.

2) One of the skills ...

I also learnt that failure is not always bad

One skill that i learn was to make use of little tape to make a strong and stable hanger that could hold a shirt.

it showed me new aspects of creativity and how to predict better

2) being able to make use of AI to research is a skill that is needed

2) An interest towards design, resilience, perseverance and time management

one of the skills i learned is to think and have multiple different approaches to a certain prototype.

2) One skill I learnt is to be resourceful and efficient with the materials

2) designers need to have time management to meet with deadlines of projects. They also need to be patient and resilient when they do their designs. Most importantly, they need to accept failures in life as not everyone can succeed in the first try.

the differences is that the process for ideation is quite short for art where a sketch is needed however in d and t the sketch needs to be specific

some of the values is resilience in trying again

2) creativity, cos u need to be innovative to make new products. You also need to be aware of people's needs to make user centric products

I learnt that we need to consider needs of different views points when creating a product and ensure that 1 product must substain it purpose or else it won't work

2. Creativity and teamwork were important skills needed to properly design a product. An open mind to suggestions as well as an innovative mindset was needed

We made hangers which thought us problem solving skills and product analysis

2) I think the most important values one should keep in mind while creating a prototype is to remind yourself of the main desired goal one wishes to attain through the creation of the prototype, while maintaining a positive and persevering attitude as to not be dismayed easily when faced with failure or challenges.
