Quick student answer
Which design methodology emphasizes iterative development and user feedback?
Direct answer
Agile Design is a methodology that focuses on iterative development and incorporates user feedback at each stage of the design process.
Key terms
- Iterative Design: A design process that involves repeated cycles of prototyping, testing, and refining to improve a product.
- Collaborative Design: A design approach that involves multiple stakeholders working together to create a product, leveraging diverse skills and perspectives.

Design processes
- Students should be aware of, and able to discuss and implement, the stages of a range of design processes in order to apply personal judgement and relevant criteria in the appraisal of products and systems, including: • those used in the NEA • investigations and analysis • use of inspiration materials, eg mood boards • ideas generation • illustration • development of a design specification • modelling • planning • evaluating and testing. Prototype development.
Design processes
- Students should be aware of, and able to discuss and demonstrate, the development of a prototype from design proposals. This knowledge should influence the development of design ideas for the NEA so that students may make high quality products that meet the needs of identified users.
