Abstract

Scenario-based design thinking aims to improve students’ design ability, creativity as well as learning transfer ability by the improvement of teaching techniques, innovation of teaching methods and teaching practice. The “Little Sun” stroller design project is introduced into the teaching practice process. Different scenario prototypes are completed and tested after understanding and exploring the scenario, and researching the needs and prioritizing them to create new ideas. The above process can be cyclical, showing a non-linear characteristic. This product design teaching practice research is based on real projects, which is an active exploration and useful attempt for scenario-based thinking in industrial design professional courses.
