Design Thinking

Essential Question
Design Thinking: A tool for life?





What is a Bootleg?

This Stanford D.School Bootcamp Bootleg is an "active" toolkit to support your design thinking practice.


This document is composed of 5 "Modes" and many "Methods". The Modes are general areas a designer opperates in within the design process. The Methods are specific techniques you may employ in support of the purpose of a Mode.


Complete the following tasks:

1) As a team, select one of the 5 design thinking "Modes" to educate the class on. Study up on the Mode. Prepare and present to the class so they understand the process involved with it. The goal is that the class understands how to operate within the mode.

2) Choose a "Method" that would support the Mode you selected. Include this Method as an example of how to operate within the Mode.

3) We've been using our 12 Step Iterative Design Process. How does the Design Thinking process presented in the Bootleg differ from our 12 step process? How is it similar?
