Understanding Creativity

Creativity is the ability to generate innovative ideas and solutions by thinking outside the box and breaking conventional patterns.

Importance of Design Processes

Design processes provide a structured approach to problem-solving, ensuring that creativity is effectively utilized to achieve desired outcomes.

Stages of Creative Design

The creative design process typically involves stages such as research, ideation, prototyping, testing, and implementation.

Research Phase

During the research phase, designers gather information, analyze data, and gain insights to inform their creative decisions.

Ideation and Brainstorming

Ideation involves generating a wide range of ideas and concepts through brainstorming sessions and creative thinking techniques.

Prototyping and Testing

Prototyping allows designers to explore and refine their ideas, while testing helps to identify strengths and areas for improvement.

Implementation and Iteration

The final stage involves implementing the design and iterating based on feedback and insights gained from the testing phase.

Write down 3 things you learned in this lesson.

Have students enter three things they learned in this lesson. With this they can indicate their own learning efficiency of this lesson.

Write down 2 things you want to know more about.

Here, students enter two things they would like to know more about. This not only increases involvement, but also gives them more ownership.

Ask 1 question about something you haven't quite understood yet.

The students indicate here (in question form) with which part of the material they still have difficulty. For the teacher, this not only provides insight into the extent to which the students understand/master the material, but also a good starting point for the next lesson.
