Design Kit: Prototyping
Design Kit: Prototyping Course
Course Description: This four-week course builds on Design Kit: The Course for Human-Centered Design, a class that has been taken by thousands of teams around the world. The curriculum will strengthen your existing knowledge of the human-centered design process and help you to become a more innovative problem solver by building up your prototyping skills. You'll walk away knowing how to prototype products, services, and environments, and get constructive feedback along the way.
We will develop the Empathy Circle as a prototype.

I’ve done the design kit course several times, but never prototype one. So I don’t know what to expect. It might be more of a challenge doing this online, but we shall see.
