Design Thinking“Design thinking can be described as a discipline that uses the designer’s sensibility and methods to match people’s needs with what is technologically feasible and what a viable business strategy can convert into customer value and market opportunity.” – Tim Brown

Workshop Technology
( 2 hour Tutorial per week + 3 hours Workshop per week)
Workshop TechnologyHands on practical work with machine theory. Basic workshop tools i.e. Drilling, filing, tapping, marking tools. Turning and Milling operations
WorkspacesCreate the space and later the space creates you
Creating workspaces that facilitate group discussions, short lectures and quick prototyping are essential for this module/course. It needs to be equipped with modern engineering tools that support the iterative design development process. Adequate space is also required of system testing and operation – depending on the scope and size of the project.
How do we induce curiosity?How Stuff Works
Get students to open up a consumer product. Introduce to them
• Mechanical Components and Mechanisms
• Materials• Manufacturing processes• Electro-mechanical System Engineering
Mechanical EnablersThe Hardware
Get robotic kits, or materials from hardware shops in your neighbourhood.

Create a Challenge
Work in Teams
Infuse the CDIO Framework
Can - Can Challenge• Robot needs to move 500mm to bring an empty can of Ø70mm back to the
start line as quickly as possible.• The robot must start behind the black line.• The can must go past the start black line to be counted.• The can will be removed after it is released at the start line.• A new can will be replaced after the can is removed.• 2 trails for each team, 2 minutes per trial, highest number of cans will be
chosen.• The team with the highest number of cans collected wins.
