CUSIS科目資料	Description： “It’s not ‘us versus them’ or even ‘us on behalf of them.’ For a design thinker it has to be ‘us with them’” -Tim Brown   “Human-centered design is a philosophy, not a precise set of methods, but one that assumes that innovation should start by getting close to users and observing their activities.” – Donald A. Norman   Design thinking creates value through systematic innovation. The objective of this course is to enable students to apply design thinking to create social value through systematic social innovation. To elaborate, this course introduces students to design thinking theories, methods and skills and their applications in the context of social innovation. Design thinking is an increasingly important concept needed for an effective implementation of ideas. It supports development of human-centric solutions, and uses a design-based mindset to provide practical solutions to complex problems.   According to Soule, Malhota and Clavier, social innovation “is the process of developing and deploying effective solutions to challenging and often systemic social and environmental issues in support of social progress.” Social innovation focuses on the ideas and solutions that create social value, which can come from the nonprofit, private and public sectors.   Modern social problems are enormously complex and this course will emphasize the interaction between different social science disciplines in the formulation of feasible and practical human-centric solutions that create social value.   The course is modeled on the MIT Sloan Design Thinking program, which consists of 9 modules (see list of topics below). In this course, through interactive experiential learning, students will learn the key concepts and methods in design thinking and apply them to solve a current real life social problem. The ideas and insights gained in this course will be further applied in the other CU-FLASH minor courses.   Group work is thoroughly emphasized and interaction of students from different majors is strongly encouraged. Students will work in groups and each group will be required to i) participate in group learning activities in classes, ii) perform exercises, and iii) do a final project on social innovation. A series of social innovation case studies and guest lectures from social innovators will be presented to students, reinforcing the practical aspects of this course. Students are strongly encouraged to interact with these practitioners.   Learning Outcome： l   Students will understand what innovation is and how it creates social values. l   Students will master the basic design thinking skills. l   Students will learn concrete methods in identifying and emphasizing with user needs l   Students will learn to translate user needs into product/service specifications l   Students will learn and apply group creativity skills to co-create multiple solutions to a social problem l   Students will learn the skills to select ideas for prototyping l   Students will learn to apply modular and integral product/service architectures to design the building blocks of a product/service l   Students will learn to perform financial analysis of their project, understand a product life cycle and select a product/service development process to suit their project need. l   Students will appreciate the value of interdisciplinary exchange and collaboration in social innovation
