It is now widely recognized that the emotional dimension of products and services is a critical success factor in many sectors. Generating products with significant emotional features is a complex challenge, as professionals responsible for designing and developing new products should be able to focus the design effort on eliciting specific emotions. But how do designers prepare themselves to convey emotions through the products they design? How do they know how to provoke certain emotions? To obtain the benefits that the knowledge of emotions can bring when it is integrated into the design process, professionals need to be assisted with approaches to apply the knowledge of emotions systematically and strategically. This book presents the development of a process to support product design teams to envision emotion-focused new product ideas - Emotion-Driven Innovation (E-DI). The E-DI process supports designers in identifying the occurrence of emotions in a certain category of products present in the market and applying this information to make strategic decisions when defining the emotional intentions for the new product. It also helps to focus their creative thinking to develop strong and meaningful emotion-centric new product ideas. This book targets a professional audience wanting to learn more about this process and provides useful tools and frameworks that can be applied in real-life cases.

Why Online Research is Important for StudentsIn today's digital age, the internet has become an indispensable tool for students. Gone are the days when one had to rely solely on traditional libraries and textbooks for research. Online research offers a wealth of information and resources at our fingertips, making it an essential skill for students to master. This subchapter will explore the reasons why online research is crucial for students, with a focus on saving time in internet technology usage.First and foremost, online research provides students with access to an enormous amount of information. The internet is a vast repository of knowledge, offering a wide range of sources such as academic journals, books, articles, and educational websites. With just a few clicks, students can find the information they need for their assignments, projects, or exams. This vast availability of resources saves students from the limitations of physical libraries and allows them to explore diverse perspectives and ideas.Moreover, online research enables students to save time by providing efficient search tools. Search engines like Google have revolutionized the way we find information. By using specific keywords, students can quickly locate relevant sources, eliminating the need to sift through numerous books or articles manually. Additionally, search engines often provide advanced search options that allow users to filter results based on factors such as publication date or source credibility, ensuring the accuracy and relevance of the information obtained.Furthermore, online research facilitates collaboration among students. With the internet, students can connect with peers from around the world, share ideas, and work on projects together. Platforms such as online forums, academic social networks, and collaborative document editors enable students to collaborate effectively, reducing the time spent on coordinating schedules and physical meetings.Finally, online research equips students with valuable digital literacy skills. In today's technology-driven society, being able to critically evaluate online sources and discern reliable information from misinformation is crucial. Online research teaches students to assess the credibility of sources, differentiate between reliable and biased information, and develop a discerning eye for quality content. These skills are not only essential for academic success but also for navigating the vast sea of information available on the internet in their personal and professional lives.
