Design thinking in
Indian Primary Education
Education policies and practices in India have been stagnant over the past few decades. At the core of
the current education system lies the assumption that education is a relatively sound knowledge
and skill set. However, today’s complex world requires versatile skill sets that can drive innovative
solutions. Thus there is a need for such competencies that can reframe problem situations and create
contextualized knowledge to derive plausible design solutions. Design thinking is the way forward- in
that it encompasses cognitive activities that focus on changing natural resources or existing human
artifacts in response to emerging human needs or desires. It is thus an iterative, human-centered
problem-solving tool. This paper highlights the importance of introducing Design Thinking at the
primary level of education and suggests interventions in the form of a proposed module to encourage
educators to help children apply design thinking methods and tools to define problems better and
generate creative and adaptive solutions.
A thorough contextual study examines the history of education
in India and the different teaching methods across the globe, followed by persona mapping, case studies, and an understanding of how design thinking will aid in the primary level of education.
