Jump Start AP(P)EX 2022/23:
What needs to be done?:
1. Dimensions of Product Design (CLICK HERE):
In your Personal Brand Website, show mastery for all parts of the 6 Dimensions.
There are examples of completed pages for each dimension HERE.
When you feel that one of your dimensions is ready for review, submit the published link for that page of your Personal Brand Website in Canvas.
You will get scored as either "Jawsome" meaning that you have done everything you need for that dimension, or "Not Yet." If you get a score of "Not Yet" make sure you read the feedback so that you know what your next steps are.
2. Design Challenge --> Using the Design Thinking process, do a design challenge!
How to start???
Either find someone you are interested in solving a problem for and gain empathy. Or think of something you are interested in, find a user and gain empathy to help solve.
Ideally - you will be able to show use of a skill from any part of the Dimensions that can be used in your prototype.
Present your Design Challenge in a Design Defense that will be scheduled by Dr Chagala. Parents are welcome to attend!
