Abstract
The IDEACtivity Center research team focuses on the synergy between various creativity techniques and the typical tools employed by Design. As a result a method and supporting toolkit have been developed to guide project design towards innovation. This paper presents a learning event covering the typical phases, concepts and techniques of the design process in only 90 minutes. The alternation between different types of communication and the emphasis on sensory perception enabled participants to achieve a fast understanding of the Design process providing a positive setting for learning.
