STOP DESIGN THINKING - Save yourselves from design thinkers
STOP DESIGN THINKING I have uploaded a paper at Academia and medium about how to understand the modern mindset by examining the term design thinking. Join me to discuss this https://www.academia.edu/s/b416e3384b or you can read about the same at https://jinankb.medium.com/stop-design-thinking-c6ffc24148d1 One doesn’t require an anthropologist, sociologist, psychologist, and least of all a cognitive scientist to understand the modern mindset. Just a bit of common sense (the most uncommon in modernity which is what schooling takes away) will do. A proper examination of the term ‘design thinking’ will do. How they bring in two totally diverse phenomena together in words and pretend the job is done. This is the same drama with first fragmenting knowledge into various subjects and making the pretense of integrating all by just creating a few terms- multi-disciplinary, inter-disciplinary, etc… It is interesting another nature of the modern mindset which can be called an ‘afterthought’. This means first destroy, make this as default and then pretend for the first time a solution is provided. Take the usage ‘out of the box thinking. A much-celebrated usage…. The stupidity of the modern mindset is that they are not asking why are you in the box in the first place. Who put us in? So, our default setting is in the box, fragmented……. And instead of trying to find the root cause, a temporary solution is offered.

Friends, We are happy to invite you to the launch of our new book ‘SEEING WITH HANDS’ - Exploring the potential of drawing as a cognitive activity. Date: 6th July, Time: 4 30 to 5 30 PM IST. Zoom Link https://lnkd.in/ggc8wrU8 Amazon - https://lnkd.in/gZsFXAA9 This is a book on seeing- how children use drawing to observe the world. The book is to initiate seeing- an invitation to become an enquirer- to be like children, to observe, to touch, to feel, to sense… and more importantly, to let understanding take place. So, the invitation is to read the book without any forced agreement but to rediscover what children do when they have the freedom to draw and when they are not confused with our notions about art, self-expression, skill, etc. ‘Seeing with Hands’ explores the cognitive potential of drawing to understand the world. The book totally challenges our notion of drawing. It establishes drawing as means to observe and make sense of the real world. It also establishes the necessity of understanding drawing in continuation with children's actual experiences, the toys & play they create to revisit these experiences. The author says “It was by sheer accident that I stumbled upon the idea that children might be using drawing to understand the real world in terms of two-dimensional space.” This was evidenced by three years of children’s drawings done with absolutely no adult interference, whatsoever - neither to correct or praise. Naturally drawing became an activity that every child did to enhance their observation rather than to make artistic, skilled drawings. This book is bound to lead to a new way of being with children, respecting their autonomy and their innate ability to develop their cognitive systems. This has the potential to enable adults- parents, teachers, educationists, cognitive scientists, and psychologists - to reflect on their own schooling process and the way knowledge gets created naturally.
