Challenging Assumptions with Prototypes

Once a solution is identified, assumptions pose a risk, as these are almost always based on bias. Learn how to take low-fidelity prototypes into the field, considering a wide range of perspectives.

• Establishing hypothesis against prototype solutions
• Developing low-fidelity prototypes
• Testing ideas amongst a diverse set of users
• Gathering feedback and observational research
