Here’s an article about the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design at Stanford (a.k.a. "the d.school) from the India Times.
Though it quickly ventures off into a discussion about more traditional approaches to design education, I like the article because of what it represents: it’s very much an example of Thomas Friedman’s belief that ever-increasing flatness will, and it’s also about the emergence of Dan Pink’s view that R-directed thinking will be what enables one makes a good living in the 21st century.
Most of all, it affirms my belief that the d.school isn’t so much a place as a state of mind.
