This research seeks to analyze the existence of a relationship between the creative methodology called Design Thinking and a possible increase of motivation in adult learning. Traditionally, adult learning is structured to be conducted by the teacher, in which it determines the contents to be worked and how to conduct the process. Already in creative workshops of Design Thinking, learning can be built collaboratively with students, between teacher and students, and among colleagues, in a process that involves learning and social development that are already part of the individual and his history lifetime. In addition to conducting a literature about both topics, it includes the development of creative workshops in various areas as a way to analyze the motivational process of adults with the use of the methodology to solve many complex problems, as relevant and challenging in the world today. The research took place through a questionnaire in the Creative Workshops of DT's Sectoral Innovation Area in SEBRAE / RS. The realization of all workshops took place in 2014, in various cities of the Rio Grande do Sul state, and were conducted by the author and the co-worker Carlos Idiart, graphic designer and virtual games designer. The Workshops of the format was developed by the author through workshops and classes with d.think group in Rio de Janeiro and Porto Alegre, other creative experiences and was approved by Sebrae / RS. The survey in total were apply in ten (10) Workshops and several lectures on the subject in the period. In addition to the questionnaire, which was qualitative analysis tool, the used the participant observation methodology has been applied. The fact that the workshops were always conducted in double work, had facilitated the process in a relevant way. The subjects were adults, male and female, aged between 21 and 58 years micro business owners and entrepreneurs, affiliated with the Sebrae / RS, being a minority with complete college level and with the vast majority of university level, as well as graduate and master's degree’s level. Participants were adults interested in developing their businesses and learn about innovation through DT creative methodology. Important to mention that the participation of all the workshops was self motivated, encouraged by Sebrae / RS, and participation in the completion of the questionnaires was suggested by the author, but never demanded of subjects. Data analysis, performed by drawing pictures with clouds of words have generated the following categories: 1) perceived need / desire for learning; 2) cooperation in the construction process of adult learning; 3) emotions present in adult learning construction process and 4) DT format to increase motivation. As a complementary category analysis of the subjects considered students and adult learners, was part of the vision of the mediators of creative workshops based on DT methodology and created the category 5) Additional: Mediator's vision / Workshops Teacher. The subjects showed a clear perception of the need to learn, which can stimulate the motivation to learn, and when asked about their emotions, demonstrate an attitude of acceptance and openness to express and deal with the emotions present in the learning process. According to the analysis of the research, the format proposed by the Design Thinking stimulates and increases the motivation to learn exactly by bringing the emotions of the subject to the fore in the process, through an initial stage of empathy, and propose of questions, divergent and convergent views, multidisciplinary interaction among participants and practical training activities for tangibilization ideas and proposed solutions in creative workshops. The vision of mediators that facilitated the creative workshops came to complement the analysis of the research, especially since expressed positive emotions about the application of the methodology, the motivation of students and also to its own involvement in the learning process of building this creative format, more open, focused on humans and in today's most complex needs of today's world.
