Design Thinking timer Il y a quelques années, Jan Rogers remarquait que sa fille Lauren avait du mal à saisir la notion de temps qui passe. Horloges analogiques, montres, compte à rebours du micro-onde, tous les objets donnant l'heure de la maison ou du magasin restaient une énigme pour cette jeune fille de 4 ans.

Aujourd'hui, le Time Timer a fait sa place dans les classes du monde entier, des écoles maternelles aux universités. Utilisé et recommandé par Jake Knapp dans les Design Sprint, ce timer sert à délimiter des petites périodes de temps, de quelques minutes à une heure. Concept du Time timer par Jan Rogers.
