Caselet for Q 9,10 : In the Test phase of a design thinking workshop, participants are immersed
in refining their prototypes for a project aimed at revolutionizing public transportation. They're
confronted with intricate challenges that demand a deep understanding of the design thinking
principles.

9) During user testing of a high-fidelity prototype, the participants encounter a situation 1 point
where user feedback is overwhelmingly positive about the aesthetics and interactive features of
the solution. However, one user points out a crucial flaw that compromises the safety of the
passengers. How should the participants reconcile the conflicting feedback while adhering to
design thinking principles?

Prioritize the aesthetic and interactive aspects, as positive feedback outweighs a single
safety concern.
Ignore the safety concern since it contradicts the overall positive user feedback.
Immediately halt the project to address the safety issue, disregarding other feedback.
Analyze the safety concern and explore ways to integrate it into the design without
compromising the user experience.
No, the answer is incorrect.
Score: 0
Accepted Answers:
Analyze the safety concern and explore ways to integrate it into the design without
compromising the user experience.

10) In their pursuit of an innovative public transportation solution, the participants are 1 point
creating both low-fidelity and high-fidelity prototypes. However, they find that some stakeholders
are skeptical about the benefits of using low-fidelity prototypes, as they may not fully represent
the final solution. How can the participants effectively communicate the value of low-fidelity
prototypes and their role in the design thinking process to these stakeholders?

Explain that low-fidelity prototypes are only for internal use and do not impact the final
solution.
Highlight that low-fidelity prototypes allow for quick testing, learning, and refinement of
ideas.
Assure stakeholders that low-fidelity prototypes will be discarded after user testing.
Convince stakeholders that low-fidelity prototypes are solely for showcasing design team
creativity.

No, the answer is incorrect.


Score: 0
Accepted Answers:
Highlight that low-fidelity prototypes allow for quick testing, learning, and refinement of ideas.
