At thinkpublic we regularly run workshops to that engage with stakeholders and encourage people to think creatively about social issues.
Paul and Alice from the thinkpublic design team ran a workshop with students from London College of Communication last Friday. The workshop focused on the issue of obesity and taught students methods for Understanding User Experience, Generating and Prototype Ideas and Future Visioning.
The students then designed new ways to involve users in the design process, the outcomes included a giant dice game, GPS trollies that link with nectar cards and an interactive activity that got us all closing our eyes and imagining the future of obesity.
