Challenge taken:  The biggest challenge as of today is people became more habituated to the  machines and technology. They are mostly connected to the human centric  output without even input some times. So they are even more habituated to  several innovations done by the design thinkers. The main role takers here are  the design thinkers who thinks in the perspective of the user and deliver a  product which satisfies all the user’s needs.

Selection of the tool:  The design thinking tool which I think more effective for this challenge is  visualization. It is a way of thinking which is different from the regular one.  Because it allows us to use a particular part of our brain as it is mostly  dependent on the picture reading. It is a fact that the pictures will be more  effective than any matter. Visual thinking is to generate ideas by thinking  innovatively and deliver a product for the user.

How to apply? :  Apart from selecting a particular tool in design thinking process, the major  thing is how to apply it in our product development. It is really appreciable  idea to chose visualization in my view. It also includes several steps in its  application of the product development as in the case of other tools of design  thinking. It is nothing but a technique to communicate our ideas with others  through creating different pictures and graphics. I believe that it is the most  effective way of confessing our thoughts in thinking about a design.

It includes several steps like group discussions, a brief design of the product  and finally coming to an overview of the whole process to develop. At first we  need to discuss on several things in user’s point of view. This includes  questioning ourselves on what are the challenges faced by the user now and  how he would be benefitted after the product is developed. After this each  one of the group will get several points in their assumption as each of them  thinks differently. Now, we need to get an overview of the most spelled  opinions of the group and prepare a sheet on that. Now the next step of this is  to ideate one’s own ideas separately for the new product. But it should be in a

different way that is pictorial representation as we are in the phase of  visualization. It is more understandable than any report based on some matter.  After this each member of the group will get an idea about the prototype.  Finally it leads to a particular design of the product.

Insight:  It is nothing but understanding a specific thing in a deep context. As our main  theme here is to understand and define the problem and come to a final  decision about the design. Psychologically it is stated that most of the people  are connected to the pictorial representation rather than any other reports. So  I personally believe that it is more effective tool.

How to approach:  There are several ways to approach this tool as this is more understandable for  the people to get into the next step. The pictorial representation may be of any  kind such as graphs, pie-charts, histograms or any other sheets.
