Reflection First of all, this course helped me learn more about myself. I am product design engineer recently graduated, so i was a little familiar with the process "design thinking" because throughout the career was to make different projects seeking to meet a need, know the target audience and develop different design processes to reach to a final design, make prototype and present, but not getting feedback of the prototype with the stakeholder, just with the qualification of the teacher. Is important to test the prototype and get feedback on different aspects in order to implement improvements. With the specific activity worked on the course, I could open my mind to new solutions, as recently left college to find work, not an easy situation, but with the course I could see that there are different ways of looking at a problem and solve it . Learn the design thinking process will help me in life and in the workplace to solve problems in a creative way, open-minded.
