"I am impressed with the material coverage of this course. Not only it is providing a clear structure of Design Research, but also trying to address and equip participants with various ways of doing and thinking. The concepts and terminologies are well-introduced throughout the course and Q&A sessions which had successfully provoked my curiosity to follow them up further and apply them to weekly assignments as necessary."
