Design Thinking Camp
I have attended Design Thinking boot Camp between 20.05.2019 and
25.05.2019.The overall design thinking camp is good. I got clear outline about Design thinking through camp. Design Thinking will invoke the new aspect of engineering, which proves to be best platform for research. But, I have doubt how it could be applied to analytical or numerical papers in the area of civil engineering. The way the session was handled is good. I have got clear idea about how design thinking can applied for problem solving. Design thinking is a process of creative problem solving. It is a user centric process. It is five stage process comprising empathy, define, ideate, prototype, evaluation. In empathy stage, we have to identify the problem and to find out the area of concern through observation, engaging and empathizing with the people/ use. The next stage is a converging process, in which the major cause of the problem is to be defined. The, it diverges to find out numerous solutions in which the ideate involves. From, the available techniques we can find the best feasible solution, from which a prototype or model evolves. Finally, the prototype can be evaluated by the users. This process of Design thinking is human centric, which can be used for research works, industrial projects. But, the syllabus involving Design Thinking is little complicated. The applications of Design Thinking involves in education, in business and in industries. The process of Design thinking opens up ones emotional skills. Design Thinking is one of the creative techniques which evoke problem solving skills. Creativity techniques are methods that encourage creative actions, whether in the arts or sciences. They focus on a variety of aspects of creativity, including techniques for idea generation and divergent thinking, methods of re-framing problems, changes in the affective environment and so on. They can be used as part of problem solving, artistic expression, or therapy.
