Design and Innovation

About this book

Design and Innovation connects creative problem-solving with the experiences of the people a solution is intended to serve. Grounded in a Filipino approach to design thinking, the title emphasizes pakikipagkapwa, empathy, observation, and respectful dialogue as learners investigate needs and define meaningful design challenges.

Collaborative ideation, early prototypes, and user feedback help teams test assumptions and improve their ideas. A capstone project and design portfolio bring together the proposed solution, the decisions behind it, and the learning gained through repeated testing and reflection.
