19 Feb '18

Dear I2D Lab Faculty and Friends, This is going to be a very interesting presentation. I have quite a number of students who will come, but I'd like to see some more faculty as well. Joe's framework is really relevant to how we do innovation. I need you to RSVP if you intend to come, but have not yet responded. Thanks very much, Andrea Burniske Program Manager, I 2D Lab Global Engineering Programs, 4th Floor, Wang Hall Purdue University West Lafayette, IN Ph: 765.496.3533 Skype: AndreaLaBurniske https://engineering.purdue.edu/GEP/I2DLab In engineering<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering>, a solution may be considered elegant if it uses a non-obvious method to produce a solution which is highly effective and simple. An elegant solution may solve multiple problems at once, especially problems not thought to be inter-related. From: I2d-list [mailto:i2d-list-bounces@ecn.purdue.edu] On Behalf Of Burniske, Andrea E Sent: Saturday, February 03, 2018 3:15 AM To: i2d-list(a)ecn.purdue.edu Subject: I2D-list I2D Lab Meeting Discussion - Dr. Joseph Sinfield 'Achieving Impact Through Innovation, by Design' [cid:image002.png@01D3A980.639714B0] Dear Faculty, Students, and Other Friends of the I2D Lab, The second I2D Lab Faculty Meeting of the year will be held Wednesday, February 21st, second floor Wang conference room (2501), lunch served - so RSVP, same time (11:30 - 1:30). --> Please invite students and field researchers/implementers as appropriate. Dr. Joseph Sinfield (CE) will present "Achieving Impact Through Innovation, by Design" Workshop Description: The focus will be on achieving impact through innovation, by design - that is placing an intentional focus on impact from the outset of problem definition through to the articulation, pursuit, and achievement of design goals. Drawing on insights from the schools of thought of innovation, design, learning, and entrepreneurship, content will highlight shared attributes of high-impact innovation, which can be characterized as innovation that has achieved great reach, affected dimensions of society of significance, driven a paradigm change in thought, and caused lasting change. With this perspective as a foundation, patterns of thought and action that are inherent in both historical and contemporary high-impact innovations will be translated into a proactive design process for complex socio-technical challenges. Application of this process will be illustrated through select case examples from industry and the non-profit sectors.
