The first week of class provided a variety of lessons. In regards to design thinking, we learned how involved the design process is. Likewise, we learned how important asking the right questions is. For instance, “why” is a deep diving, crucial question for research. The question “why” can result in answers that can help spark new ideas as well as broaden or narrow the selection of potential avenues.

When designing the consideration of consumer and self is paramount. A personal narrative is key. Considering the narrative of the consumer is also crucial. Going through the process is a dynamic process, each stage is a different space. At every stage, a good design thinker should be ready to be wrong or restart. Understanding that the design process is flexible and not every solution conceived is feasible or solving the problem at hand.
