Project-based teaching of product innovation design based on KJ/FAST/TRIZ
In the new era of "mass innovation," higher requirements are being placed on the cultivation of innovative talents in colleges and universities. In response to this, the project teaching process of product innovation design based on KJ/FAST/TRIZ is proposed. Firstly, the original user needs are obtained through investigation, and the KJ method is used to classify these needs in order to determine the target of product design. Subsequently, guided by these objectives, the FAST function tree is utilized to establish the functional model. Then the Function-Oriented Search in TRIZ theory is employed to address key sub-functions, and the conflicts within the functional model are resolved using the Con-tradiction Matrix. Ultimately, a product innovation design scheme that meets the needs of users is obtained. Further-more, a case study of this project-based teaching process was provided using the innovative design of a Household Intelligent Storage Cabinet as an example. This teaching method takes user demand as the orientation takes project implementation as the carrier andutilizes a comprehensive application of various tools to guide students'completion of product innovation design projects in steps, thereby to enhance the cultivation of students' innovative practicalabilities.
