You did a great job writing a crisp and clear reflection. Your structure into the three main conclusions makes it easy to follow your thoughts on the first lecture and summarizes it concisely. Moreover, you succeed in explaining the role of the prototype in design research, even taking the extra step by researching the meaning in more detail. It is clear that you really tried to get behind the week's topic and managed to improve your own understanding with the help of different sources. Your pre-theme posts reflect that as well as show that you have a more than good comprehension of the given research papers. In particular, I also agree with your response to the different values of design in a research project (contribution in knowledge) and design in general (satisfy user's needs).

Reading through your reflections, it is clear that you worked well with the texts and managed throughout the week to increase your knowledge of design research. I especially liked the example of your own experience of building a prototype and how this was of benefit in validating your idea back in high school. I also agree that math can be one part in selecting an idea. However, I don't think it is the only way to prove if an idea is profitable since an idea nobody has believed in first can also prove to be financially successful anyway. Do you agree? Anyway, your text is structured cleverly and follows a strong line of arguments that perfectly showcases a prototype's role and practice - great job!

I think you did a great job in deducting messages of value for design research and for prototypes. In particular, you get back to original questions of the pre-theme, for instance, answering where the difference lies between design research and design in general – this also got me thinking about this again. Your steps of thought are easy to understand and establish good arguments throughout your text. Reading through your pre-post on this topic, I find specifically interesting what options of assembly you had mentioned, which reminded me of market research used in advertising or marketing. Really good work!

Thank you for a good summary of week 5. You provide all the core information we got out of the lectures, I just miss some reflective thoughts of your own. However, since we did not have a seminar this week, some questions stayed probably unanswered. As you mentioned in your text, it can be rather confusing to find a solution to a problem, thus Haibo's approach on defining the actual problem might help to assist in finding a solution. I really appreciate this concept since it was news to me - the 90/10 ratio seems a bit intense though. What do you think?

Your blog posts really show that you put a lot of effort into this week and worked on understanding the topics in-depth. The structure of the text, particularly the first lecture, really helps to frame the idea process. Moreover, you really succeed in bringing me closer to the subject of our second lecture, explaining the content in a very understandable manner while pouring in your own thoughts.

You have written an interesting reflection by including the main elements of the first lecture and spicing it up with your own thoughts! I like your statement on how you can communicate your idea the best: by being a mixture of a salesperson, an entrepreneur and a researcher - this really captures the challenges of success. When the idea itself is validated and likely profitable, you still need to unify your skills and create opportunities, in order for your idea to make it in reality. Besides, I agree with your answers on the last questions, which summarizes the other arguments in your text. Well done!

You indisputably did great in structuring the elements in your text containing spot-on conclusions drawn from this week's theme. Your text really captured the essence of the lectures and your own thoughts are worked in skilfully. Especially your comment on the professor's idea selection and validation method proves that you have reflected in detail on the topic. I share your idealist perspective, hoping that a balance of all influencing factors determines the success of an idea. Moreover, I really like your analysis on design research and its ability to question the idea constantly and checking on its relevance. Enjoyed your text!

Indeed, a very well written and nicely structured reflection. The missing seminar did not seem to limit you in your understanding of the texts. I especially like your statement about how selling your idea is an essential part of being a successful researcher. If it's getting the job, selling your invention, or growing your business, it all revolves around getting other people on board, and for this you just have to be able to sell it - communication is key.
Your arguments distinguishing between the two types of prototypes are truly comprehensive, so any misconceptions about these research fields I might have had vanished. Spot-on!

Your text is well written, interesting to read and structured in an understandable manner. You focus on one very noteworthy pre-theme question successfully distinguishing between design and design research. I think that your visual samples make your point, and clearly illustrate your thoughts on this; I like that you put the topic in context to your field of study as I see that as one of the course's intentions! Reading through your two posts for this week, I really value your style of writing, since it is of high quality and conveys the messages of the texts together with your own considerations. Spot-on!

Great reflection in which you put the context in perspective to passed lectures. Enhancing the text with visualizations makes it very easy to understand and succeeds in revising the lectures. I think you successfully summarized the week's messages and did a great job structuring them and putting them into words. Interesting quote of Don Norman! I think it's hard to not measure everything around us in regard to our own perception of it, especially when you develop an idea and are dependent on the opinions of others. Well done!
