Design Thinking: a didactic-methodological proposal for the training of computer science lecturers

Design Thinking arises from applying techniques and phases of the design process adapted to marketing, commercial, business and industrial processes, and in recent years it has been contextualised in training processes. This research shows how this approach can constitute a way of working in the context of training computer science lecturers. Our proposal is based on identifying techniques for the transit through the different stages from the didactics of the teaching media to the educational research. We developed a concrete set of actions to develop and research academic/productive skills and competencies in the context of solutions to problems of pedagogical practice. It goes through the identification of academic training objectives, problem analysis, strategy design, the conceptualisation of digital didactic media and constant verification of satisfaction levels, all under a multidisciplinary, collaborative and creative approach in tune with the current times.
