POV & IDEO
Define/Ideate/Mock-up
We had a talk from Meena from about IDEO and approaches to design thinking and research. Up in class we gathered our research we did for homework to discuss and find trends or interesting manifestations. We practiced our POV statements before the end of class.
Reflection:
Using post-it notes to define trends in our research was very useful, it provided a clear look at the distinct groups/categories that things could be attributed to. Unfortunately i was the only one out of four people doing the same topic who actually did any research so everyone got to advance their understanding of the topic despite doing no work for it - an aspect of group contributions that never fails to come up.
I feel this exercise would have been more beneficial had my interviews been of better quality, my questions didn't get a discussion going and my answers were a little under developed and failed to tell me anything i didn't already know. Something to try again during the break.
Agian the POV statements would have been more beneficial if my interviews had gone better. Nonetheless the exercise itself does help to simplify and clarify a specific cause and direction.
