LIS 505K Library Test Kitchen @ Simmons
Libraries represent the convergence of knowledge, space, community, and relationships. They offer a creative domain for designing, building, testing, and deploying devices, services, and experiences that will shape their future. In this course, students will gain experience with human-centered design skills, ethnographic observation and interviews, rapid ideation, applied problem-solving, developing and pitching ideas, identifying assumptions, and design fictions. No previous experience with design or fabrication is required. Resources and support for developing skills will be provided throughout the course.
