Course ”phases” • Phase 1 (~ period III) – User studies – Gain in-depth insights about your user segment – Discover un-met need, problem or desire • Phase 2 (~ period IV) – Design – Design and evaluate concepts to address issue from user studies • Phase 3 (~ period V) – Prototype & user testing – Build interactive prototype of final concept – Evaluate design using advanced user testing
Combining user research, service design and lean startup Lean startup Service design Service concept Business model Business model feasibility canvas canvas Systematic exploration and iterative op’s Customer Prototyping Prototyping discovery User centric methods Combining the best of both worlds

Diversity • Diverse, multi-skilled teams produce much better results that homogenous teams • However, this is true only if – Diversity is not seen as a problem – You work on understanding others – You appreciate the ideas and inputs of others • YOU are responsible for your work attitude!
Experiential learning • Don’t believe what I say, believe what you experience yourselves – Changing your attitudes, values and views • “You cannot experience the experience before you experience it” • Experiential learning requires participation – No way to “compensate”
Experiential learning basics Oppor- Attitude Effort Result tunity Design Your responsibility project
Mentoring • A unique opportunity to learn from the best • Mentors volunteer to help you – NOT to do the work for you • Not paid – doing it for you! • Deserve the utmost respect for their effort – Be very mindful of meeting times etc – The whole team meets with the mentors • Any complaint from the mentors on student (mis)behavior results in failing the course – Includes not attending mentoring meetings
Critical success factors • Team co-operation – Very tight schedule, start NOW – Everyone is needed all the time • Team organization – Define clear roles and responsibilities – Team leader could play a critical role • Meaningful division of labor – Good results are achieved with active co-operation – Every team member must be an active contributor – Maximize parallel processing – Feedbacks, comments, improvement ideas etc fuel a successful team
Some practical stuff • Comms • Facebook group for informal comms • Find group DesignProject2017 and ask join it • facebook.com/groups/DesignProject2017/ – MyCourses forums for team deliverables • Contact info: – hakan.mitts@aalto.fi - 050 408 5622 – mika.nieminen@aalto.fi - 040 731 2625

PASSING THE COURSE
Passing the course • Individual requirements – Actively contribute to team/group work • Work is not a valid reason not to participate! • To be on the safe side, agree with H&M about any absences • Complaints of undue absence by rest of team or from mentors will result in failing the course. – Present in 7/9 Friday feedback and pitch sessions • Group requirement – All deliverables done and stored in MyCourses – Deadline 23.5.
Grading and credits • The course can only be done for 10 ECTS – 10 ECTS = 10 x 27h = 270 hours of work/person – 9 sprints => 30 hours/sprint => 15 hours/week => 2 full working days/week – Lectures + mentor meet-up ~10 hours/sprint – 20 hours work/person/sprint – …For a grade of 3! • The course will be graded per team – All team members will get the same grade – Non-participation of a student will not result in a lower grade, the student will simply not pass – You cannot compensate later for a low grade/fail • Grading will be based on – Feedback/review sessions: 50% – Documentation in MyCourses: 50% – Exceptional final presentation can give: +1 grade
