Sažetak
Nowadays, some of the learning models are outdated and the relationship between the lecturer and the student is changing. New generations are looking for more interaction, practical work, communication and they want to express their opinions. The main obstacle on the path to creativity and expression is the fear of how a particular lecturer will react. The course Disruptive Innovation and Design Thinking approached learning in a new and modern way, allowing us to gain the breadth and theoretical knowledge necessary to demonstrate the importance of the innovation process in all segments of study, and especially in the new challenges that digital economy brings every day. In this paper we touched on new ways and methods of learning using the Design Thinking process and we shared our innovations, reached by using said process. We introduced an idea for a Design Thinking workshop, a contactless asynchronous mailbox and a new model of giving feedback through a “feedback” application solution. The Design Thinking approach to problem solving encourages creativity and teaches students to focus on solutions rather than obstacles. It also allows to explore a multitude of alternatives, cooperate with different people and create a product that is customized to the needs of the user. Therefore, we believe that teaching classes as the Disruptive Innovation and Design Thinking in necessary and much needed for the education of tomorrows economy students.
