What our community members say

It is an excellent course for the introduction of design thinking. In a compelling and fun to follow story, I learned all about design thinking from understanding and empathizing with users to creating and testing solutions to their problems. The course was presented in an easily digestible format with thought provoking questions forcing you to reflect on what you learned. Even better, at the end of each module you share what you learned with fellow students and grow even more from their perspective.

Loved the storytelling framework used. The content was relevant; quizzes were great, and the references for deeper learning were good suggestions

The course was easy to use and fun. The interactive method along with a single storyline made learning more engaging. Real life examples like the story about Nicholas Cage were relatable and fun to read and kept me interested. Both theory, story and exercise together made it easier to finish the course. The media of reading, audio and animation used appropriately at different places was a good way to keep me engaged as a user.
