“…With a predefined time-based limitation, design sprints offer a dynamic approach to problem-solving (Banfield et al, 2015), reflecting design iterations, where an outcome is expected to be produced within a set timeframe that includes repetitions or cycles (Banfield et al, 2015). The integration of design sprints as active learning tools within PBL approaches has been explored across various domains, including computer programming (Ferreira and Canedo, 2019), UX/UI design, and design and product development (Huić et al, 2023). Despite its increasing popularity, there is a gap in design research regarding the understanding of how design sprints influence design activities within project-based courses.…”
