In this unit, you will discuss prototyping. From your reading, and you learned that prototype is an early sample, model or release of a product built to test a concept or process.

Instructions

In this week$$s discussion, please take $10-15$ minutes to conduct a brief Internet research to find areas in which prototyping is used and the associated ways that prototypes can be constructed. Select at least three examples.

Next, think about a product that you would like to design. Maybe it is an improvement over an app that you use, or it can even be a tool that helps you carry groceries back to your car. Provide a short description of the product and discuss ways that you would go about creating associated prototypes for the product. Also, discuss ways to think creatively in designing your product.

The more exposure that you have to prototyping, the better able you will be towards creating your own prototypes. Being an experienced interface designer is not just about interface design. It is about being creative, and the first step in being creative is exposing yourself to new ideas and concepts.
