DESIGN THINKING AND DOING

tzt nieuwe Toolkit invoegen. Kopje moeten Design Thinking heten

In our HZ Innovation Studio, we like to work according to Design Thinking approaches. In this, the basic five steps are to empathize with a certain challenge, define the problem, ideate a solution, prototype and test it. Throughout various projects, our students showed that they can do more then only giving suggestions on how to change things: they also help or lead in actually making the change.

Our stakeholders can come with different challenges. We discuss with them whether they have especially an interest in getting inspiration, in helping them with ideation or to work on implementation. Depending on the project, it could also be the case that these three stages are combined in a logical order.

See the model below for a few examples in this. We train you in the tools and the journey so you work on your competences of be(come)ing an innovator.

THE 3 DESIGN DELTA’S

Within the HZ Innovation studio we work with the 3 Design Delta’s which are based on the intuitive workflow process of a designer. The delta’s provide an even balance between creativity and analytical methods. This combination motivates project-teams to define the problem and formulate the solution with a greater sense of adventure. Different perspectives and experiences consciously flow into the solution process. Throughout the process, you will receive coaching and supervision that corresponds with the particular step you need to take. Each step in the design process has its own goals, intended output and can use a number of (digital) tools.
