Framing Students’ Reflective Interactions Based On Photos, Marije Ten Brink, Frank M. Nack, Ben A.M. Schouten Sep 2021

Framing Students’ Reflective Interactions Based On Photos, Marije Ten Brink, Frank M. Nack, Ben A.M. Schouten

Learn X Design Conference Series

Critical reflection, addressing students’ attitude, beliefs and values related to pressing topics in the world, plays a crucial role in developing ethical sensitiveness and critical design literacy in design education. Critical reflection is provoked by discussing self-made photos, as is demonstrated in the research method Photovoice. This paper considers Photovoice in design education for its ability to foster learning through self-guided critical reflective interactions with peers based on self-made photos. Research on how to support this is lacking. This paper addresses this gap by studying students engaging in self-guided Photovoice assignments. Results consist of adapted steps for Photovoice in education …


What Have You Learned? An Experimental Approach In Teaching Human Factors In Design To Undergraduate Id Students, Selen Sarıel Sep 2021

What Have You Learned? An Experimental Approach In Teaching Human Factors In Design To Undergraduate Id Students, Selen Sarıel

Learn X Design Conference Series

This case study presents an in-class exercise as a way to learn about the course learning outcomes for a Human Factors in Design course carried out with undergraduate level industrial design students in the 2020-2021 academic year. The paper introduces the course content, comprised of the theoretical knowledge-sharing part, sample assignments and in-class exercises to define the context of the study. Watching the same short movie at the beginning and the end of the learning period, students responded to open-ended questions that encouraged them to think about how their perception had changed towards the content of the movie and to …


Developing A Design-Based Understanding Of Learning In Transitions: A Multiple Case Study, Elif Erdoğan Öztekin, İdil Gaziulusoy Aug 2021

Developing A Design-Based Understanding Of Learning In Transitions: A Multiple Case Study, Elif Erdoğan Öztekin, İdil Gaziulusoy

Nordes Conference Series

In sustainability transitions, experimentation and learning are addressed as key processes that facilitate implementation, diffusion and scaling of transition mindsets and actions. In this paper, we argue that design acts as a means for this actionbased transition learning. Contributing to design for sustainability transitions literature, this paper proposes a design perspective on learning in transitions which enables analysing the multifaceted ways, depths and scales of learning that design mediates. Through a multiple case study on sustainable community settlement initiatives, we examine and discuss the roles of design in facilitating interactive learning, and thus in orienting and accelerating sustainability transitions.
