What is the most appropriate action for your team to take at this point?

Choice-1: Disregard the feedback as a result of individual preferences and proceed with the existing navigation design.
Choice-2: Revise the navigation based on the feedback and create a new prototype for further user testing.
Choice-3: Continue testing with additional users to gather more diverse opinions before making any changes to the navigation.
Choice-4: Conduct a survey among all team members to determine the best course of action based on their opinions about the
navigation design.
Choice-5: Implement a completely different navigation design to address the concerns of the users who found it confusing.
Correct Answer: Choice-2: Revise the navigation based on the feedback and create a new prototype for further user testing.

Question 117
Design Thinking often requires collaboration and interdisciplinary teams. Let's consider the following scenario:

07/07/2024, 02:19 Scrum Test Questions (130 Exam Samples) [2024/25]

You are leading a Design Thinking team tasked with redesigning a public transportation system in a major city. Your team includes urban
planners, software developers, and transportation experts. During the ideation phase, conflicts arise between team members with
differing priorities, such as efficiency, sustainability, and user experience.

What should you do as the Design Thinking Professional to manage these conflicts effectively?

Choice-1: Side with the urban planners, as their expertise in city design should take precedence over other concerns.
Choice-2: Allow each team member to pursue their priorities independently without collaboration, as this might lead to the best
solutions for each aspect of the project.
Choice-3: Facilitate collaborative discussions within the team to find solutions that balance the various priorities and consider
trade-offs between efficiency, sustainability, and user experience.
Choice-4: Take control of the project and make the final decisions to resolve the conflicts quickly and ensure the project stays on
track.
Choice-5: Implement separate solutions for efficiency, sustainability, and user experience, even if it results in a disjointed
transportation system.
Correct Answer: Choice-3: Facilitate collaborative discussions within the team to find solutions that balance the various priorities and
consider trade-offs between efficiency, sustainability, and user experience.

Question 118
Design Thinking often begins with empathy for the users. Let's explore a scenario:

You are a Design Thinking Professional leading a team working on improving a mobile app for healthcare providers. During user
interviews, you encounter a healthcare professional named Michael, who expresses concerns about the app's security and privacy
features. He emphasizes that these concerns are a significant barrier to using the app.

What should your team do to address Michael's concerns effectively in the early stages of the design process?

Choice-1: Ignore Michael's feedback, assuming that security and privacy are not top priorities for most healthcare professionals.
Choice-2: Record Michael's feedback but continue with the existing design plans, as addressing security and privacy concerns
might be too time-consuming.
Choice-3: Engage in further discussions with Michael to understand the specific security and privacy aspects that matter most to
him and explore ways to integrate those aspects into the app design.
Choice-4: Completely redesign the app's security and privacy features based on Michael's feedback, even if it means changing the
original design significantly.
Choice-5: Continue with the current design plans and consider addressing security and privacy concerns in a future update to the
app to avoid delays.
Correct Answer: Choice-3: Engage in further discussions with Michael to understand the specific security and privacy aspects that
matter most to him and explore ways to integrate those aspects into the app design.

Question 119
Design Thinking encourages a holistic approach to problem-solving. Consider the following scenario:

You are part of a Design Thinking team working on creating a better shopping experience for an e-commerce platform. The team has
conducted user interviews and identified issues related to both the mobile app's navigation and the checkout process. Users have
expressed frustration with the complexity of these areas.

What should your team do to address these issues effectively in the design process?

Choice-1: Focus solely on improving the mobile app's navigation and ignore the checkout process, as it's a separate concern.
Choice-2: Revise both the mobile app's navigation and the checkout process in parallel to ensure a holistic improvement in the
shopping experience.
Choice-3: Conduct separate design sprints for the navigation and checkout process to address each issue independently for
quicker results.
Choice-4: Ignore the feedback related to the checkout process, as it might be too complex to address within the current project
timeline.
Choice-5: Create a new checkout process without addressing the navigation concerns, as it's essential to improve the shopping
experience promptly.

07/07/2024, 02:19 Scrum Test Questions (130 Exam Samples) [2024/25]
Correct Answer: Choice-2: Revise both the mobile app's navigation and the checkout process in parallel to ensure a holistic
improvement in the shopping experience.

Question 120
Design Thinking emphasizes the importance of iterative prototyping and testing. Let's consider a scenario:

You are part of a Design Thinking team working on a project to create an innovative smart home device. After creating an initial
prototype, you conduct user testing with several participants. The feedback reveals that users find the device's interface confusing, and
some essential features are missing.

What is the most appropriate action for your team to take at this point?

Choice-1: Disregard the feedback and proceed with the existing prototype, assuming users will adapt to the interface over time.
Choice-2: Revise the device's interface and add missing features based on the user feedback, then create a new prototype for
further testing.
Choice-3: Continue testing with additional users to gather more data and see if the issues are consistent or isolated cases.
Choice-4: Simplify the device's interface even further, assuming that simplicity will address the user concerns without significant
changes.
Choice-5: Implement a completely different design for the smart home device, as the current prototype seems too problematic to
fix.
Correct Answer: Choice-2: Revise the device's interface and add missing features based on the user feedback, then create a new
prototype for further testing.
