360 Prototyping: Learn to Look at What You’re Building from Every Angle

Prototyping might be defined as applying a craft to learn about your product as you conceive and construct it. In order to learn more about your product (and what it can be) you want to look at it from all angles, not just the perspective you have inherited from developing your existing skills. In other words, designers, developers, and idea builders all benefit from being able to think about what they’re building using each other’s differing points of view.

So how can you learn a new framework for conceiving of a product without spending years practicing a new craft?

Research in the science of how people learn confirms that there are three different ways to pick up new perspectives and use them to inform what you create. In this session we will discuss these three pathways to 360 prototyping and everyone will get a chance to try on a new way of looking at what they make.
