Put yourselves in their shoes to understand their needs\, pains\, and gains.\nDefine: What are the core problems your customers face? We’ll craft problem statements that are user-centered and actionable.\n\nPart 3: Ideate and Prototype: \n\nIdeate: What are your solutions to your customers’ problems? We’ll use creative techniques (such as mind mapping and SCAMPER) to generate a wide range of solutions to the defined problems.\nPrototype: Let’s take one or two promising ideas and build simple\, low-fidelity solution and/or prototypes – let your creativity flow!\n\nPart 4: Test and Feedback: \n\nWhy feedback and iteration in the design thinking process is so important.\nIt’s show and tell time! You’ll present your solution and/or prototype to the group.
