Desing Thinking Activity

Presented by Tania Vanegas

challenge: The challenge that I want to capture is going to be: We have a problem with  the internet of some university students and due to the health situations that the  world goes through with Covid-19, virtuality is the tool to get ahead, some students  They do not have the resources to adapt to this situation, how can we solve it.    Selection: The tool that we are going to use is the visualization (Module 1).  Visualization for creative and intuitive thinking in search of a solution to a problematic  situation should be done based on a key question of the creative thinking process that  are:

Visualization is not about drawing but about visually imagining things in your thinking  since human beings have the ability to remember things better and organize them  better if they are visually attractive. Visualization is within us, innovation begins within  us, not outside.

Application: Using the tool to visualize the problem reflected, we take as an  application, which is the main problem and it is the connection or access to the  internet of the students, we look for some ideas and we visualize them, as a solution  could be study with the different students and Find out how they can improve the  quality of the connection, facilitating them with aids such as data, devices such as  laptops, digital tablets, among others. It was also proposed to work on an extra- temporary basis, that is, at different times than the other students, leaving jobs on  weekends for the whole week so that they do not have to connect every day, and have  complementary materials for the subjects.

Universities must find how to finance these aids, either with student fees or aid from  the state or the committees that are part of this establishment.

Approach: Due to the current situation in the world, many things used for education  and the preparation of people for higher education are limited, educational  establishments and universities must try to meet expectations and seek solutions such  as helping students students who need it, providing services, thus supporting each of  their students with laptops, digital tablets, mobile cell phones, mobile data, internet  connection, among others and so they can fulfill the responsibilities, although none of  us were prepared for this situation, with visualization to find solutions to each of the  problems that arise.
