Conclusion
The impact of Design Thinking in teaching and learning at
schools is promising. The case study has resulted in a
positive experience for the participants. Design Thinking
gives teachers faith in their creative abilities through a
process to hold on to when facing difficulties during the
project. We can conclude our hypothesis confirmed that a
teacher would be more likely to repeat constructivist
teaching in a real school scenario when applying the
Design Thinking process. This was mainly evaluated
through measuring the self-perception of teachers (Mood
measurement, Questionnaire). In further research external
evaluation could be applied to enhance the results. As can
be seen in figure 12, the ambiguity of the teachers
personality at the beginning of a project still relies on
openness (hope) towards constructivist teaching.
Nevertheless Design Thinking can give especially critical
minded teachers a guiding framework and support, until a
dynamic sets up motivating and hopefully leading to
confidence.
Design Thinking can serve as the missing link between
theoretical findings in pedagogy science and the actual
practical realisation in schools. It meets the crucial criteria
for effective 21st century learning by facilitating
interdisciplinary projects, approaching complex
phenomena in a holistic constructivist manner. It thereby
leads to a transition from the transfer of knowledge to the
development of individual potentials. It enhances the
implementation of CSSC learning by giving teachers more
confidence in creating and exercising collaborative project
