S1 Micro NPD and personal learning styles 05/03

New Product development - 'quick fire Exercise' 

Chris Chambers will conduct a quick fire exercise throwing you into your own new product development exercise. This 'Micro NDP' exercise will be revisited again in lecture 2 next week. It's not how good you are at drawing or designing this exercise aims to illustrate how you should approach the design. There is far more to the design process than just coming up with bright ideas. If you engage with this exercise and learn from it the needs of an NPD process you will be well equipped for the main project.

Personal learning styles

Charlotta Windahl will take you through an exercise that will analyse your learning type. We will use this when we form the teams. It is beneficial for a team to have a mixture of learning types. It is interesting to see what learning type you are and know that of your team mates. To be most effective you must answer the questions honestly and from your gut reaction without too much analysis. There is not right to wrong best or worst just different approaches. Which one or what mixture are you? You'll find out.
