The D-Think research project emerged in this educational context during September 2014 and is an initiative of 7 partners from 6 different European countries, supported by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Commission.
The project aims to promote a wider use of Design Thinking as a transversal learning tool by developing and making available a toolkit and an innovative digital course for educators and professional trainers.
The result of the first year of the D-Think project is a Research Report about Design Thinking and its application in Education and Training, providing a spring board for the next stages of the project: the creation of the D-Think toolkit and a D-Think m-learning course, both in development and testing until August 2017.
The main objective of the Research Report is the clarification of the role of Design Thinking in HEI (Higher Education Institutions) and VET (Vocational Training) Education, and the identification of new approaches to teaching/learning.
