DT Curriculum — Skill Entry
This SKILL.md is the entrypoint for the Design Thinking learning curriculum.
The dt-learning-tutor agent loads this skill to teach Design Thinking concepts, run
comprehension checks, and assign practice exercises. The curriculum spans nine
progressive modules — one per Design Thinking method — and a shared manufacturing
reference scenario that threads through every module so learners build on consistent
context as they advance from the Problem Space to the Implementation Space.
Curriculum references
Load the module that matches the method the learner is studying. Load the manufacturing
scenario alongside any module that uses scenario-based checks or exercises.
