This answer is for the Design Thinking courses only. View the following links for the answer to this question for the other programs:
The THINK525x Design Thinking Capstone will test knowledge and skills across all four RITx Design Thinking courses (THINK501, THINK502, THINK503, THINK504). It will include a project-based set of activities similar to those done in the four courses. There are no exam questions.
We recommend that you review all of the four RITx Design Thinking courses and take your own notes to document the key learning from each course/lesson. You will be allowed to access the edX Notes Tool during the capstone, so we highly recommend you go back and ensure all notes you want to have access to are entered into this tool. You should be able to view all the courses you've taken on your edX dashboard unless you unenrolled to remove them. Students must prepare individually as there are no instructor-provided practice problems or prompts.
Students who pass all four RITx Design Thinking courses (with a 80% or higher) on the verified track can take the capstone as a verified student. The cost to take the capstone as a verified student is $200. The "audit student" capstone experience only includes the capstone overview and does not allow access to capstone activities. You can only earn the MicroMasters certificate if you pass all five required courses in the program as a verified student with a 80% or higher.
