COURSE OUTLINE

1st Week: Introduction to Holistic Product Design

During this week, students will dive into methods of design sprints, prototyping, and user research that they’ll apply in Week 2.

2nd Week: Design sprints, prototyping, and user testing in practice

During this week, the class will be divided into small design sprint teams. Each team will be given a problem to tackle during the week and will employ the design sprint, prototyping, and user research methods they learned the week prior.

3rd Week: Group presentations

In this final week, students will refine their prototypes based on user research from the prior week, and present their work for a group presentation and critique at the end of the week. We’ll have daily design “stand-ups” to provide ongoing feedback.
