What Is Design Thinking About?
What Is Design Thinking About?
You're asked to solve a problem — and halfway in, you realise you don't fully understand it.
Ideas keep circling. Something's not working, but no one can pinpoint why. Everyone views the problem differently, moving fast but not always in the right direction.
Design Thinking 101 gives you the mindset and process for you.
Course Overview
Design Thinking 101 is a highly interactive introduction where you’ll learn by doing.
Using the DesignThinkers Academy methodology — Discover, Define, Design, Deliver — you’ll experience the process of understanding people, framing problems, generating ideas, and testing solutions.
It's designed to make you a confident participant and collaborator in Design Thinking projects, with one key difference: you learn how AI can support research, sense-making, ideation and prototyping — while keeping human judgment at the centre.
