- 1. product development project pdp ? D E S I G N FACTORY FOR STUDENTS
- 2. Design Factory is a multidisciplinary product and service design environment bringing together students, teachers, researchers and companies. Our aim is to build a pas- sion-based product and service development environment. Design Factory brings research units knowledge and degree programmes’ students and also machines and facilities for companies to use. In Design Factory Hämeenlinna facilities there is a design department’s digital product and development laboratory that offers knowledge and machines for 3D-scanning, -modeling and -printing (plastic, resin), paper, fabric printing and laser technology, wood, metal and electronics. Working in Design Factory happens in multidisciplinary teams and strengthening one’s own expertise. The idea of the Design Factory is to offer the possibility to learn by going on real life company projects. The companies are part of the projects during the whole process not just in the beginning or in the end. The main goal during the PDP process is the journey itself and not just the end result. PASSION FOR DOING DF? WHAT’S
- 3. PDP? WHAT’S PDP is a two periods long course where students solve real-life company problems in multidisciplinary teams. During PDP students have an opportunity to learn new skills that they might not be able to learn during their basic studies in workshops like 3D-modeling and laser cutting. In PDP students can build their prototypes and at the same time expand their knowledge and skills. At the end the course, student teams build a concrete prototype for the company to demonstrate their idea. The student team’s also test the developed prototype to get real user experiences from the product. After the test team’s analyze the results and gives the results to the client. Credits: 10 ects project working Additional 2-10 ects workshops Students define the product development problem and start creating the solution.

- 13. DAY/PART-TIME STUDYING IN Working in PDP is divided in two. One being the lectures and the other being guidance. The guidance works as a support pillar for the teams’ development, better understanding of the subject and noticing different viewpoints. The purpose of guiding is not made for giving already-made solution. Instead, it is meant for supporting the students’ task to come up with the solution for the problem, the work around the solution and succeeding as a team. Guidance On Tuesdays at 9:00-13:00 there will be teaching and lectures for the students. Guiding sessions for the full-time students are held on Tuesdays after the lectures from 13:00 to 16:00. All of the teams have two coaches and all the meetings are online meetings, unless otherwise agreed. Full-time studies Tuesday's lectures will be streamed and recorded for the part-time students. Part-time students’ coaching is held on Thursdays at 18:00-20:00 and the Tuesday's recordings should be watched before this. Part-time student's also have a full day with full-time student's on Tuesday once a month and these days are marked in their course's timetable. All of the teams have two coaches and all the meetings are online meetings, unless otherwise agreed. Part time studies 10

- 15. PROTOTYPE Part of the PDP course students build a prototype from the product development idea. The prototype is a model from the developed product and the prototyped model makes it easier to demonstrate the idea for the client. Students build a so called middle level prototype from the product or service. The idea of the middle level prototype is to recognize the product’s functions and the functionality can be tested in some level. The experiment can be for example filling a form from a website or testing a light version from the product. Buildable prototype: 12
- 16. WORKSHOPS Design Factory organizes workshop days for the machines and softwares and these workshops are additional and open for students, teachers and company representatives. In the workshops it is possi- ble to learn about VR, 3D-modeling and -printing and laser cutting for example. Workshops are a great possibility to learn skills that students may not be able to learn during their studies otherwise.

PROCESS DESIGN THINKING EMPATHIZE PREPARE REPEAT DEFINE IDEATE PROTOTYPE TEST ASSESS HAMK DESIGN FACTORY based on: Design Thinking Process Diagram* | d.school Executive Education modified by Jukka Raitanen, Jari Jussila, Vesa Tuomela & Reetta Kaikkonen Teaching in PDP is based on design thinking method. Design Thinking is based on accordance of Stanford’s Hasso Plattner Institute. Design Thinking is the crossing theme of the project which includes both getting to know to the theory and planning, doing and analyzing the practical experiments. 15
- 19. 16 PDP EXPERIENCE DEFINITION OF PREPARE Start from yourself. Ask five questions: Who am I? What I know? Who I know? How do I learn? and What can I do? Then write a screen play about what you can and will do with whom. EMPATHIZE Listen, observe, engage, talk, and interview people with and to whom you are trying to solve a challenge. Try to live somebody else’s life a short while or create a persona. DISCOVER Curiously search and see secondary data, information and inspiration about the topic and themes related to the challenge. Make a picture of concepts. Remember, everything matters. DEFINE Formulate a question ”How might we…” solve a challenge by creating options and possibilities. Set must, could, should and won’t criterion to answer the questions. Remember, focusing to ask questions direct your actions. DEVELOP Create a lot of ideas, with your group based on the criterion, combine ideas, make choices and design a concept of a solution. Then, build a prototype to get first experience and feedback to the solution. Remember, it is easier to ideate than it is to transform ideas into tangible concept. That is learning! EXPERIMENT Set a hypothesis and present your prototype to the users, ask them to try and use it, while you observe and collect feedback on experiences and impression. Remember, feedback helps you to get your solution right. That is also learning! DELIVER Design your minimum viable product based on the feedback and your insights. Then plan a communica- tion and marketing message, channels and target groups. Launch and start monitoring marketing activ- ities and customer experiences. Remember, the first customers are your users who have been engaged in the designing process and tested the solution already. REPEAT Design doing is all about learning, changing point-of-views and making it again, frequently and systematically, design will never end. Remember, it is people that matter, if we really want to improve other people’s lives by designing better products, services, business models and learning, we should do design work with them. And then repeat, we all learn!
- 20. 17 OBJECTIVES TEAM COMMUNICATION Choose the communication channel with your team and collect all the informa- tion about the project in one place. Stay active and add everything you do to the teams. Remember to write the meeting memos/minutes. You need to return it at the end. ROLES Make sure every team member has their own role and everyone completes the needed tasks. The team manager makes sure that everyone does their tasks and take action if something is wrong. SCHEDULE At the beggining make a rough plan for what is about to happen. Try to think a goal for every week and follow that plan through the weeks. The goals can be small and something practical. CLIENT One person (usually team manager) communicates with the client about the progress. This makes sure that the messages are clear and consistent. PROGRESS Make sure your project is keeping up with the schedule and everything is moving smoothly Think when the prototype needs to be ready and tested. TEAM Team building is important at the beggining so make sure everyone is feeling welcome and the atmosphere is good. Find out everyone’s strenghts and where they want to especially evolve.

- 22. Our electronic corner provides a possibility for building embedded systems like for example measuring systems, which can measure surrounding areas or processes. You could also build bigger and smarter systems like smart screens. Printing shop provides a possibility for printing with different type of materials for different needs. Here students can benefit from 3D printing, vinyl cutting, large scale poster printing and t-shirt or small fabric printing. In our VR-lab, students can get a better and immersive understanding, when 3D modeling spaces or objects. For example, the VR space can be used for designing a surface area of an object, which then can be exported to our 3D printers in Print shop. 19 HÄMEENLINNA FACILITIES IN Electronic corner Print Shop Nerd-ery
