Challenge
The Danish Design Centre came to CanopyLAB with the need to digitize their workshop project REMODEL aimed at manufacturing businesses. The aim was to reach a much larger target group through digitizing while still maintaining the highly collaborative and feedback oriented structure of the learning material.

Solution
The REMODEL project turned out very successfully leading the learner through the processes of design thinking and Open Source works. The learner is guided through the entire course by videos with the Director of Digital & Future Thinking at DDC and is invited to join and collaborate through a variety of engaging, hands-on exercises. The variety of creative exercises that are part of the CanopyLAB-platform engage the learner to fully interact with a creative process as design thinking. Furthermore, the social and collaborative elements of the platform made it possible for learners to both pitch, give feedback and thereby learn from others on the platform.
