How you can apply what you learned here
- 1. Empathise: What is something you really care about? Is there a societal or environmental issue that really bothers you and you want to help solving it? Then you need to empathise and put yourself in the shoes of the people who experience these issues first hand.
- 2. Define: Define the needs and problems of the people you empathised with. Think about solving their problems with the help of your project.
- 3. Ideate - Let's brainstorm! Look for people who are also interested in innovation or have great ideas. Sit together and brainstorm ideas to solve the problems you defined in the second step.
- 4.Prototype - Create a prototype of your design.
- 5. Test - Now it's time to take action and see how your design works. Let a group of people - your target group - test your product and ask for their feedback.
