I took the 'Innovation and Design Thinking' course at Stanmore School of Business and found it to be a valuable learning experience. The course covered a wide range of topics, from understanding customer needs to developing and testing prototypes. I appreciated the practical examples and case studies that illustrated key concepts, such as the importance of iteration and feedback in the design process. While some of the course materials felt a bit dense at times, the instructors did a great job of breaking down complex ideas into manageable chunks. One area for improvement could be adding more regional examples and case studies to make the course more relatable to students from diverse backgrounds. Nonetheless, I'm glad I took the course and would recommend it to others looking to develop their innovation and Köln problem-solving skills.
