Design Thinking

Design Thinking taught me to open my mind and see from another’s point of view to help everyone, including ourselves. It’s about making things easier to do than they are now. We learned a lot through prototyping and interviewing the public. Thank you for teaching us!

Through Design Thinking and the six-step process, we learned to empathise with our audience. It was hard to come up with a lot of ideas in just 15 minutes, but we did it like the teachers said we could. We learned a lot, and it was fun!

I’ve been to other similar courses before, but this one was unique because we got to interview strangers and work in teams. I’ve worked alone in all my other courses, but Thinkroom let us discuss and make friends with each other and the teachers more than the rest. I really treasure this experience – especially coming up with 150 ideas in a few minutes. Thank you, Design Thinking teachers!

It was really fun to interview strangers outside the classroom with my friends. Though we were confused over what to do at first, the teachers were very helpful and we managed to build a wacky invention in time for our presentation!

The biggest part for me was when we had to go out to interview strangers. It was awkward and I even had trouble thanking people for helping, but at the same time it was exciting! We learned a lot about how different people saw the same things we do in their own ways.
