DESIGN THINKING
Take some time to think....now think some more. Your task is to come up with an example of a specific global problem/situation/social ill this type of design thinking would allow you to create a solvable solution to.It is very important to not let the lack of technology control you thought process or solution to the problem.
1) Identify the problem you are intending to solve. Create an approach/solution/s which current technology does not currently support but most certainly could in the future.
2) Next take a moment to consider the down stream affects you're solution could potentially have on society and the affects generations yet to come.
3) Lastly identify areas you think you could consider improvements. Identify the improvement's as well as the resources needed to produce this technological product/s.

WOULD YOU DO IT!
NOW THAT YOUR MIND IS IN THE CORRECT SPACE, PRETEND YOU ARE 6 YEARS OLD...CLOSE YOUR EYES AND BRING YOURSELF BACK TO THAT TIME...FEEL THE CREATIVITY FLOW..
ASSIGNMENT #1
YOUR CREATIVITY TASK:
INVENT SOMETHING THAT DOES NOT EXIST...
EXAMPLES:
THE LADDER TO THE SUN, SPRAY ON SOCKS, A WINDOW THAT TRANSPORTS YOU ANYWRE IN THE WORLD.
THE KEY TO THIS IS YOU HAVE TO CREATE SOMETHING THAT DOES NOT EXIST. THERE ARE NO LIMITATIONS IN THE DESIGN OF YOUR PRODUCT.
