Problem of the Month: From Ideas to Experiments

Problem of the Month: From Ideas to Experiments

In the final session of the series, we’ll focus on rapid prototyping and testing — turning rough ideas into simple experiments that help you learn what works, what doesn’t, and what needs refining. As a reminder, this month we’re focusing on improving learning and focus.

Working in small groups, you’ll choose one or two promising ideas and create lightweight prototypes to explore how people might respond. The goal is not to build something perfect, but to practice learning quickly through action.

This session is ideal if you want experience moving from ideas to evidence, or if you’re curious how small tests can create clarity without requiring long-term commitment. You can join whether or not you attended earlier sessions — the focus is on practicing the skill of testing ideas in a supportive, low-pressure environment.

Open to UC Berkeley students.

Thursday Nights @ the eHub are a weekly, drop-in practice for figuring things out.

Each week, we work on a real problem together — practicing problem-solving, creativity, and judgment with curious, thoughtful people.
