I enjoyed learning about the design process this week and how to find empathy for the people we are designing for. The TED Talk we watched on designing for the disabled was really interesting to me. I like how Roy talked about her story and how designing for disability first can really have a positive effect on everyone. She talks about what design thinking is and how important it is to have a change of mindset when designing. When working on my insights project I have been trying to understand the people I talk to better and look past just their words, I’ve learned to understand peoples emotions, body language, and tone when talking to them. I think this week is really going to help me when thinking about designing creative spaces on campus. I also liked that we learned the importance of prototyping. This has come up in a couple of my classes this term and how prototyping can help designers move forward when they hit a road block.
