Iterative Process

Note: The iterative design process is a straightforward concept. Once you have identified a user need and have developed ideas to meet that need, you create a prototype. Further, you test it to see whether it meets the requirement. Then you take what you observed from prototype testing, make necessary changes, and create a new prototype. You keep iterating until you reach the best possible product/service for release to the market.

A critical aspect of design thinking is the willingness to fail. To create a truly successful solution, it is often necessary to fail early and learn from those failures. That means learners must be encouraged to explore their ideas fully without being overly critical of themselves. If an idea or prototype fails, they should not be afraid to go back and try again.

It does not matter whether an idea sounds stupid or clever; what matters is that it is explored and put out there. By doing so, we open ourselves up to the possibility of learning from our failures and ultimately creating something better.
