Challenge and Selection 

 I will use design thinking methodology to understand elements that lead to   success in higher education among first generation and low - income students .   Listening to and empathizing with their needs , to gain enormous insights into the   types of support services and mentoring first gens feel will help them navigate the   academic and social challenges they face from the time they complete high school   throughout college . Stories generate questions and questions expand the breadth   and depth of stories , leading to lots of innovative thoughts and ideas . Storytelling   becomes an important tool for feedback , which is the basis of the iterative   process of prototyping that lead to solutions . Stories and prototypes are   intertwined , explaining and repositioning experiences through a multitude of   potential interpretations , which allow researchers to test new solutions before   committing exclusively to a particular policy , program , or service . 

 Design thinking is a methodology for solving problems that focuses on asking   questions and listening , with empathy , to the needs of individuals and groups .   Storytelling is an “ essential human activity ” for sharing experiences , explaining   values , and deciding on solutions through vivid verbal and visual accounts . 

 Application 

 Storytelling helps explain the interconnections among people in situations and   settings , teaching broad lessons that engage real human beings . Listening engages   people ; and   empathy is an essential and fundamental component in the process .   One of the practical features of the design thinking process is the ability to get   consumer feedback about the product or the service to improve the product in   the future . Here , the storytelling can be used to explore how the final product is   used in real life and how consumers interact with it in their everyday life . The   information collected from the feedback sessions are usually used to improve the   future versions of the product . While the storytelling can be used in different   stages of the design process , it is a suitable tool to collected personalised   experiences from the consumers . It may be hard to build a generalized data based   on it because of the different nature of each consumer ’s story , but I believe this is   one of the strengths of the tool . It helps us to understand the empathic   experience that the users face when using a product or a service . This unique   strength point can be valuable for the design thinking process especially when it   targets specific problems such as medical interventions or personalised use cases . 

 Insight and approach 

 In sum , the storytelling is a powerful communication tool that enables us as a   human being to understand more about our emotional experiences . This makes it   an effective method to use during the design process . It can be used during the   design thinking process phases with a different goal in each stage . Storytelling can   help us to gather personalised emotional data about our consumer ’s experience   which can be hard to collect using other research methods such as the survey and   consumer journey mapping .
