Design impacts virtually all aspects of library work from space design to service design to curriculum design. But, how do you ensure that your design is successful? Design Thinking is an approach to tackling problems and developing creative, user-centered solutions. This course will walk participants through the theory behind this process and offer a chance to gain hands-on experience with each step in the Design Thinking cycle. Participants will learn how libraries have found success through Design Thinking and techniques for bringing Design Thinking to any type of library. At the end of this course, students will be able to: - Define Design Thinking and understand each of the steps in the process - Understand how Design Thinking has been applied in a range of library settings - Apply the steps of the Design Thinking process - Build prototypes - Ideate and develop ideas, including as part of a group This course can be taken as one of six courses needed to earn our Certificate in User Experience (UX), but can be taken as a stand-alone course as well. http://libraryjuiceacademy.com/certificate-ux.php Carli Spina is an associate professor and the Head of Research & Instructional Services at the library at SUNY's Fashion Institute of Technology.
