It is easy to feel overwhelmed throughout the research process. From literature review, research design, and collaborative projects, we constantly seek to create structure in ambiguous processes.
This interactive session introduced Miro as an online visual knowledge management tool, enabling collaboration via embedded design thinking techniques. Miro incorporates best practice from the world of innovation and human centred design, with an array of capabilities from ideation and brainstorming, to strategy and planning. This introductory session co-hosted by the BEST Centre, Centre for Digital Economy and the School of Advertising, Marketing and Public Relations taught us more about Miro and how it can be used in research, planning or industry projects and collaborations.
