Abstract

Design thinking is currently considered a different way of satisfying customers’ requirements for diverse products or services, which has incorporated multi-disciplinary and multi-dimensional logical thinking into design objects. In the contemporary society, various design fields are emphasizing the significance of design thinking, such as industrial design, architectural design, landscape design, graphic design, and clothing design. As creativity becomes more and more valued and appreciated, design thinking is no longer limited to higher education. However, when managing to embed this kind of thinking into high school education, educators still face diverse difficulties and challenges. As a result, this article provides a critical approach to comprehensively analyzing and examining those published articles related to design thinking, acknowledging both of its merits and limitations as an art teaching approach in high school.
