Course overview
This course will introduce you to the innovative product design process. You will explore what innovation means to different people and explore the different types and levels of innovation in the product design process. You will consider innovations throughout history identifying that very few innovative ideas are new; the vast majority take something that is already working and improve it, be it a product, service or process.
You’ll consider the development of an innovation that you are particularly interested in, and, through a short project, produce and share with other learners your interpretation of its history.
