The class was a variation on a concept created by IDEO’s Haiyan Zhang called “Game On!” The idea is to demonstrate how fast the participants can move from concept to interactive prototype. It’s incredible what people with little to no previous experience can achieve in the span of a few hours. We constrain the workshop to the creation of a game because it allows people to be silly, excited and not over complicate the challenge.

Dave Vondle from IDEO and I organised a workshop at ID in the Fall called "Thinkering with Hardware". Dave has has blogged about it on IDEO labs. See some cool student projects after the jump.
It is thrilling to see designers tinkering with electronics...
