Ideation and Design-Thinking Discussion Board

Discussion: Ideation and Design Thinking

---

This week’s “Discussion” assignment will be approached differently, and more collaboratively. This assignment requires that you post your initial work, Part 1, on Saturday by 8am, respond, Part 2, to your classmates by Sunday 8am and then complete your reflection, Part 3, due by next Tuesday 8am.

? Unlike past Discussion and Response assignments, the first two due dates are not recommendations, they are required, so please plan accordingly.

PART 1 A & B (due Saturday by 8am)

A. Based on this week’s Learning Activity, complete the User and Need section of the POINT OF VIEW chart, based on your research or a related topic/issue. DO NOT include your personal Insight. Leave it blank!

Hint: You don’t have to use this template, your are welcome to create two columns or simply stack the information with headlines!

B. Then, complete the POV MadLib version, which should be more concise. Again, leave out your INSIGHT.

PART 2 (due Sunday by 8am, ET)

Choose FIVE of your classmates and complete the INSIGHT section of the POV MadLib for them. Be as thoughtful and as concise as possible. And remember, NO IDEA IS STUPID, so don’t be shy. The goal is to generate new ideas!

? Post Part 1 by Saturday 8am ET, and Part 2 by Sunday, 8am ET.

---

PART 3 A & B (due Tuesday by 8am, ET)

A. Reveal your own Insight by completing your own POV Madlib.

B. Provide response to any insights shared by your classmates that stood out, or caught your attention!

? Post to discussion + respond to a classmate.
