E-Learning: Design Opportunities at Home Part 1

Shape borrowing can be used to create new products by using basic shapes. Shape borrowing can help people to visualize products as you can let them see how your finalized product looks like. It also is more comfortable to look at as the shapes are simple and elegant and not complicated, like some designs which are not good to use and look at.

SCAMPER is used as a guide to help people improve their ideas, to make them better. SCAMPER can be useful to people whose ideas did not work out so well. They can change parts of their products, which are not good, to make it work better. The product may have some parts that would not work well. They may hinder the process of how your product works. They can have an alternate use for their products as well. (e.g. a rigid pencil case can be used as a ruler to draw straight lines) It can be used to change how the majority of the people think about the product.
