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 work. Furthermore, Design Thinking fosters a positive relationship between teacher and students. In addition, the corresponding paper by Noweski (2012) confirms the fostering of student’s social and metacognitive competences through Design Thinking. It became clear that it is a difference to possess the knowledge of project methods and to be able to actually apply them. Teachers do need confidence and the expertise in facilitating constructivist learning. There is a need for Design Thinking in teacher education, which could be analysed in further research.
