Reflection- Visualization Tool

Challenge and Selection:

The challenge here for me is, me being a student of an undergraduate course I have to think  about my final year project. Hence ‘Visualization’ can play an important role. Be the  selection of the topic or how to go about the project needs visualizing. Having a prior idea  and the outcome of the project is really necessary. As visualization helps in picturizing  something which cannot be seen or can be helpful to bring out the picture of the desired  outcome my project has to give or satisfy. As it is not about drawing but about imagining and  visual thinking this tool will help me out from selecting a project topic to finishing it well  with a desired outcome.

Application:

As I’m still in the process of using the tool, this tool has helped me think better and get to  know how things work in a better way as just reading about something would not be as  impactful as just picturizing or visually thinking about how it actually works. Not only for my  project, ‘Visualization’ can be used in daily life as well. I’m really using this tool to study my  daily subjects for better understanding. Using visualization for practical subjects is a must I  feel. Usage of this tool to understand difficult topics through picturization is really helpful.  Also, this tool has helped me take ease at some subjects I didn’t like.

Insight and Approach:

Visualization is about using images. It makes us think beyond using words or language.  It is a way of unlocking a different part of our brains that allows us to think  nonverbally and visually. When we explain an idea using words, most of us will form  our own mental pictures. If instead you present your idea to them by drawing a picture  of it, you reduce the possibility of unmatched mental models.

Hence this way of using images and pictures to put out my ideas to my team mates will  really help me to contribute to the project in a better way.  Not only giving an idea but  also would help me to explain the invigilators to understand our project in a better way.

Visualization indeed makes us think to different possibilities and outcomes, through  this I guess we can be well aware of the different outcomes as well. Making this your  usual way of thinking may get you different ideas and would really help in innovation.  As innovation these days are born after a lot of thought of pros and cons, using this  tool can be helpful.

Therefore, I hope this changed way of my thinking i.e. usage of this tool will help me  to choose an innovative topic as well as analyse its outcomes well in advance.

Since I’m not an entrepreneur or an innovator, I actually wanted to know what design  thinking was, I really liked the Visualization tool and the other tools also and will try  to implement it. I also hope the readers will also like what I have tried to put up.

Thank You.
