Course Description:
This course will introduce students to the foundational skills in prototyping, with a particular focus on cultivating customer empathy, establishing robust feedback loops, and gaining hands-on proficiency in diverse prototyping methods. Students will investigate the intricacies of prototype distinctions, from low to high fidelity, and will learn various techniques for virtual and physical execution. Through ideation and problem-solving, students will develop their ability to define problems based on user feedback, preparing them for real-world scenarios. The course uniquely integrates collaboration and support through a partnership with MakerspaceCT, providing hands-on prototyping experience in cutting-edge facilities. Culminating in a final project, students will showcase their iterative design journey, demonstrating the practical significance of prototyping in product development. |
