Stanford Design Thinking Course

Stanford Design School shares their “crash course in design thinking” to be used by everyone. It’s a short and fast-paced 90 minute workshop with an overview of how the design thinking process is facilitated with activities. I use and recommend this workshop which also comes with worksheets for participants to use and they design an experience for a partner step-by-step. You can learn about our different design thinking workshops for groups, special events, and organizations which help you to learn methods and tools like those taught in the Stanford D School.

Watch the Stanford design thinking course video below or visit their design thinking crash course website for more resources including downloadable worksheets and a facilitator’s guide. This is a great workshop to lead with groups to engage them in learning the design thinking process by doing it for and with a partner to design for. There is a “redesign the gift giving experience” workshop and also a wallet redesign workshop that are quite popular.

If the video does not appear below, it looks like Stanford has recently taken down their video of the workshop from YouTube. Please let us know if you know of another video we can post. They have recently created a virtual Stanford D School crash course in design thinking workshop.
