Beschreibung
The practice of design thinking has become widespread over the last years, and an increasing number of people and institutions have experienced its innovative power. However, the success story of the approach has also meant that the term has evolved into something of an overused, or even misused, buzzword. The demand for an in-depth, evidence-based understanding of the way design thinking works has increased by leaps and bounds. This challenge is addressed by the Hasso Plattner Design Thinking Research Program. Summarizing the outcome of the 11th program year, this book presents a broad range of scientific insights gained by researchers at Hasso Plattner Institute in Potsdam and Stanford University in California, through their investigations, experiments and studies.
Special emphasis is placed on exploring new approaches to design thinking education, making headway on the goal of the research program, namely to fuel creativity and establish improved content for the teaching andlearning of design thinking. This volume also presents a broad range of findings on effective team interaction. Moreover, researchers present their findings on tools that support design thinking practices in addition to application showcases.
The results of this rigorous academic research are not meant to be discussed exclusively within the scientific community. The findings will hopefully find their way to those who seek to support innovation through collaboration, be it in businesses or in society.Extensive research conducted by the Hasso Plattner Design Thinking Research Program at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California, USA, and the Hasso Plattner Institute in Potsdam, Germany, has yielded valuable insights on why and how design thinking works. The participating researchers have identified metrics, developed models, and conducted studies, which are featured in this book, and in the previous volumes of this series.
This volume provides readers with tools to bridge the gap between research and practice in design thinking with varied real world examples. Several different approaches to design thinking are presented in this volume. Acquired frameworks are leveraged to understand design thinking team dynamics. The contributing authors lead the reader through new approaches and application fields and show that design thinking can tap the potential of digital technologies in a human-centered way. In a final section, new ideas in neurodesign at Stanford University andat Hasso Plattner Institute in Potsdam are elaborated upon thereby challenging the reader to consider newly developed methodologies and provide discussion of how these insights can be applied to various sectors.
Special emphasis is placed on understanding the mechanisms underlying design thinking at the individual and team levels. Design thinking can be learned. It has a methodology that can be observed across multiple settings and accordingly, the reader can adopt new frameworks to modify and update existing practice. The research outcomes compiled in this book are intended to inform and provide inspiration for all those seeking to drive innovation – be they experienced design thinkers or newcomers.Based on scientific evidence from the Hasso Plattner Design Thinking Research Program Provides outlook on the emerging field of neurodesign research Highlights how design thinking can tap the potential of digital technologies in a human-centered way

“This is a very comprehensive collection of diverse ideas on design thinking research, composed of well-written chapters by practitioners. It is like a research manifesto for design thinking. I recommend the book to anyone seriously thinking about or working on design thinking or a related field.” (M. M. Tanik, Computing Reviews, November 3, 2022)
