About this Event
Join us on March 26th for an amazing workshop where you will learn easy-to execute product design research methods that do not require extensive planning, budget, or polished prototypes.
Product development requires quick, iterative feedback cycles from users and stakeholders. Professor Raelin Sawka Musuraca and Ms. Megan Guidi will share, through a hands-on experience, the scrappy research methods each developed during their years of professional and teaching experiences. Learn techniques such as Assumption Artifacts which focuses on isolating your largest product development risks and creating low-low-low fidelity artifacts to iteratively test or Analogous Domains that allows you to leverage alternative users when yours may be difficult or expensive to reach. You'll walk away with effective research methods that you can rapidly execute.
