| The d.school defines the prototyping process as "getting ideas and explorations out of your head and into the physical world. A prototype can be anything that takes a physical form – be it a wall of post-it notes, a role-playing activity, a space, an object, an interface, or even a storyboard." | The d.school defines the prototyping process as "getting ideas and explorations out of your head and into the physical world.

Prototyping at different stages of your creative process will allow you to: |
| - | Prototyping at different stages of your creative process will allow you to: | + | * Explore problems, ideas, and opportunities within a specific area of focus and test out the impact of small or radical changes in your concept. |
| + | * Better understand what makes your concept work or fail. | ||
| + | * Engage with end users or stakeholders in order to test your concept in ways that reveal deeper insight and more valuable experiences. | ||
| + | * Explain new ideas, motivate or inspire your stakeholders and investors towards new ways of thinking and doing. (Dam & Siang, 2019) | ||
| - | Explore problems, ideas, and opportunities within a specific area of focus and test out the impact of small or radical changes in your concept. | + | ==== Types of prototyping ==== |
| - | Better understand what makes your concept work or fail. | + | If we classify prototypes based on their purpose, we can identify three big groups of prototypes: |
| - | Engage with end users or stakeholders in order to test your concept in ways that reveal deeper insight and more valuable experiences. | + | **Understanding** the context and people's experience in connection with your idea/subject. This type of prototyping is also called by d.school "Prototyping for empathy" |
| - | Explain new ideas, motivate or inspire your stakeholders and investors towards new ways of thinking and doing. (Dam & Siang, 2019) | + | **Exploring** and analysing design solutions |
| - | ==== Types of prototyping ==== | + | **Communicating** ideas to your project stakeholders |
| - | There are many forms of classifying prototypes. | + | The agency nod-A identifies three big groups of prototyping {{ :fr:fiche-choisir_son_protorevu.pdf |}} |
| - | From low fidelity to high fidelity | + | **Shape prototypes**: early in the creative process and with little resources, they will allow you to better understand the value of your ideas and to communicate them to the stakeholders of your project. |
| + | **Usage prototypes**: when your ideas have a more defined shape, usage prototypes will allow you to test a particular function, use or technology of your concept or idea. They are normally thought to be tested by users and therefore manipulable. | ||
| + | **Beta prototypes**: at a more advanced stage of your idea development and after a first usage prototype, you can test and communicate the overall concept at different scales and dymensions: user experience,technological aspects, bussiness model... | ||
| + | ==== The prototyping process ==== | ||
| + | The prototyping process starts from the very moment in which you decide to let your ideas out. It is very important that you make the right choice of the aspect of your idea that you want to prototype and how you want to prototype it. But do not spend too much time planning for it, Start and improve it as it goes... | ||
| - | The agency nod-A identifies three big groups of prototyping: | + | Here some tips from Penny Hagan, who has resumed Penny Hagan has resumed the different stages when developing a service prototype. She proposes a great grid to reflect on the purpose of your prototype {{ :en:steps_to_developing_penny_hagan.pdf |}}: |
| + | 1. Choosing what to prototype: Focus on prototyping the bits of your idea that are most important to learn about at the given time. | ||
| - | ==== The prototyping process ==== | + | * What do you want to learn through prototyping? |
| + | * What questions need to be answered? | ||
| + | * What assumptions in your idea need to be tested? | ||
| + | * What aspects need further thinking and exploration? | ||
| + | * What needs to be communicated in order to enable feedback from users and stakeholders? | ||
| + | 2. Choosing how to prototype: | ||
| - | ==== Prototyping tools ==== | + | Different methods can help you explore and test different things |

Answering these questions will help focus your prototyping and help you receive meaningful feedback in the testing phase. | + | * **Build with the user in mind**: What do you hope to test with the user?
