Project problem : LITTERING Your challenge during this semester is to identify a problem (of which in this case is littering) that your team believes can be better. Then, you should apply the core concepts in the Design Thinking process to investigate that hypothesis. Creative and innovative work has a strong collective component. Activities in class and your team project will take advantage of the creative potential of collectives. Your team project should aim to develop an innovative solution to the challenge proposed to the class. You will be asked to generate several ideas and post at least two. Based on feedback (from classmates, from users) and iteration, you will develop one idea/argument, which must be grounded on research and provide a useful solution to users' needs/problems. Collective creativity is crucial for the success of your team project. It entails that you regularly attend groups meeting (and be on time), be an active and thoughtful participant during group discussions, and carry your share of the workload. The final team project grade will include all the elements of the process: The amount and quality of the research. The iterations (i.e. your ability to develop different prototypes to test and refine your idea); these iterations would be evaluated on the various presentations you will do in class during the semester. The quality and originality of the final presentation ("how sticky it is?")
