When I was filling your Questionnaire, Webside cut off my responses. I
could not comlete it.
I believe your tutors should help you for the preparation of a
questionnaire of this type. Some of the questions are not very clear.
Design thinking is a big issue. First of all you have to understand
developments in design methods as well as design research studies. The
concept of design thinking came out as a result of design methods as
well as design research studies.
I suggest you to read my paper "Investigating Design: Forty years of
Design Research" Design Issues 2004 ,1
I supervised several graduate as well as Ph.D. thesis related to
Design Thinking since 1974.
Good luck,
Best wishes,
