This paper proposes a new implementation of video games to be used as an architectural design education tool within design studios. There are studies which include video games in design educa-tion, however, they include video games either as mere representational media, or simplified de-sign environments, or as just visualization tools. Video games’ structures provide a ground for de-signing with constraints to find solutions to ill-defined design problems with a trial-and-error pro-cess. As an addition to traditional master and apprentice model of learning in the studio, video games can reduce the workload of the tutors and allow them to focus on …

A superior design thinking model can improve the quality of design education. In recent years, universities and design institutions already proposed many design thinking models around the world. Existing well-known design thinking models focus on cultivating students' creative thinking but ignore the product's inherent characteristics and users' demands. This paper proposes a step-by-step design thinking model based on Bloom's taxonomy, which is divided into lower-level and higher-level considerations. The lower-level consideration includes remembering, understanding, and applying, and the higher-level consideration includes analyzing, evaluating, and creating. The former integrates the function analysis method, form restriction method, and EGM to help students …

Nordes Conference Series
This paper explores and discuss how formalised learning activities, inspired by design methods, can be used as a pedagogic means to support transformative learning in design for sustainability education. The paper departs from the experience that formal efforts with strengthening sustainability in design education are often focusing on macro-level curriculum development; on the progression of courses based on learning objectives and goals and less on what we call micro-level curriculum development, being the actual learning activities constituting a course. In the paper, we introduce a template for formalising learning activities, we present concrete learning activities developed in the context of …
