Why Design Education?

[edit]

Design Education is an attempt to prepare future designers for a large view of how design fits in the real world. It provides designers with the analytic, conceptual and creative skills required to create various designs.[1] Design education is a program to equip designers with the necessary skills and provide clarity to the study of design. Design education fosters an atmosphere where students take practical projects and solve them individually or in groups by sharing solutions and developments with each other.[2]

Various Disciplines

[edit]

Historical Models

[edit]

The current model of teaching art and design’s context has not significantly changed from its historical roots:[14]

1) Ecole Des Beaux Arts (1819-1914):

2) Bauhaus (1919-32): Various academic philosophy models were implemented for teaching and learning such as interdisciplinary teamwork (where different individuals work together), artifacts created with common meanings in society and using the Socratic dialogue to allow students to contact researchers or professionals in the field.[15]

Interaction

[edit]

Student-Student Interaction:

Students can collaborate on projects and tasks by consulting others or sharing solutions. [16] .

Student-Teacher Interaction:

Teachers and students can interact with one another based on traditional principles of supervision, consultation and discussion.[17]

Modern Times: Online

[edit]

Online learning is a mechanism used to integrate various teaching styles and learning strategies for higher education . Online learning has been linked to increased quality of education; however, its direct impacts for design education have not been extensively researched.[18]

Design Education and ICT

[edit]

Online delivery can generate creativity, advanced thinking, reflective action and design skills that enhance educational values through engaged learning experiences.[19] This allows students to learn based on their individual styles and assist in self-directed approaches of learning. New forms of flexible, personal and customized opportunities have developed with ICT.


The Future

[edit]

The future of design education is already in effect as it has transformed into various area's of discipline. Design education has developed during the post-industrial society and originated during the industrial society.Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page). Professional design practice requires multidisciplinary knowledge. It is emerging due to the demands of information society and the knowledge economy that originally gave it growth. [20]
