Data thinking is a product design framework that emphasizes the integration of data science into the design process. It incorporates elements from computational thinking, statistical thinking, and domain-specific knowledge to guide the development of data-driven solutions. In product development, data thinking is used to explore, design, develop, and validate solutions based on data. It merges data science with design thinking,[1] focusing on both user experience and data analytics, including the collection and interpretation of data.
This framework aims to improve data literacy within organizations and individuals, promoting the use of data to make informed decisions. By adopting data thinking, organizations can develop products that are more closely aligned with user needs through evidence-based insights. It also allows individuals to derive conclusions grounded in data, potentially reducing the influence of external biases.[2][3][4][5]
