In what’s becoming a holiday tradition at the d.school, we’re releasing an updated version of the Bootcamp Bootleg, a working document that captures some of the teaching we impart in our “Design Thinking Bootcamp,” course. The guide outlines each mode of a human-centered design process, and describes a number of methods which may support your design thinking throughout the process.
We’ve updated the bootleg with new methods that students found useful this year.
The key to the bootleg is to take it out and make it your own! If one method isn’t working for you, toss it. If it works, pass it along to another design thinker. We’re excited to hear how you’ve applied what you find in the bootleg.

This is super -DUPER cool…thanks! I now have my holiday reading during the break.
Awesome stuff. Excited to hear back on application to the March term. Love this stuff so much.
Thank you guys.
The Bootcamp Bootleg has been an amazing resource for students, faculty, and staff at RIT. Thank you for sharing it with us! =)
I read the 2009 version, fantastic! The 2010 version looks even better. Mahalo! Suggestion: indicate which Mode goes with which Method would be helpful for those of us who are trying to understand and apply DT.
Found the answer to my question about linking Modes and Methods at your K-12 site. Mahalos. https://dschool.stanford.edu/groups/k12/wiki/332ff/Curriculum_Home_Page.html
