#'''Formulating you aims:''' Helps you to know what you actually want to archive with your design (and what not!). This can be seen as belonging to research but it is crucial to make the research useful, so it's got its own bullet-point! | #'''Formulating you aims:''' Helps you to know what you actually want to archive with your design (and what not!).

#'''Design:''' Is creating solutions for what you want to archive. You start with a broad design of that is fairly abstract and make your ideas more concrete over time. | #'''Design:''' Is creating solutions for what you want to archive. You start with a broad design of that is fairly abstract and make your ideas more concrete over time. For minor things new research would be too elaborate - than you repeat the smaller cycle of designing and testing in succession. | ||
#'''Testing:''' After you designed you need to test if your ideas work as you expected. This is can be a hard thing to do because some things that seem to be great turn out to be unsuitable for your users. | #'''Testing:''' After you designed you need to test if your ideas work as you expected.

You will get all sorts of interesting insights that will help you in improving your ideas. | ||
The model is called iterative because you will go through the all or a part of the steps several time. Doing all steps one after the other one time is known as an "iteration". Each time you do so, you improve your product and former abstract things will become more concrete. | The model is called iterative because you will go through the all or a part of the steps several time.
