| | Immersion Ok, so what do we know about this? You can always gather together your thoughts on post-its and paper, or you could try using padlet.com... Get as much down as you can, your thought, what you know to be a fact and any questions you have. | | Synthesis Create an affinity diagram by grouping your post-its and giving them a title. What new connections or understanding have you made? Come up with a “How might we..?” statement.
Example: How might we better collaborate with colleagues using GAFE? | | Ideation In a spreadsheet or on a piece of paper, generate 100 ideas in 10 minutes to meet your challenge. No judgements, just get them down!
(quantity first then quality = qualantity) | | Prototyping Using any materials you have, a Google Drawing, a Presentation, whatever, create a prototype with which you will be able to communicate your idea. (high vs low fidelity) | | Presentation and Critique Each group is going to present their idea to the rest of us and take some kind, specific and helpful critique “) | |
