GEOG 310 Lecture Notes - Lecture 15: Interdisciplinarity, Design Thinking, Mind Map
Document Summary
Design thinking - start studying from here for final! Works well on large scale multi-disciplinary problems --> especially in problems that are difficult to get boundary conditions. Also works to address problems with lack of data as well (those with ill defined boundary conditions) Other types of problem solving requires good data. It is not about making a better wheelbarrow, it is about the. Iterate --> involves trial and error within this process. During the design, you should start big to scale up your thinking. You need to focus in and then flare out again. For the process, you should get info from the real world. About a series of mindsets and behaviors --> design focuses on the ability to construct based on our behavior. We have to understand what it is that we are trying to solve. Problem framing and definition --> we have to appropriately understand and analyze the problem, it is key to the other stages.
