Nisha, Bobby – Educational Psychology, 2019
Spatial design as a discipline relies on the psychological construct of space. In the light of shortcomings and challenges faced by traditional approaches to spatial design learning, this paper investigates the role and value of Virtual Reality (VR) as a pedagogic vehicle. Based on understandings informed by action-research using VR with learners…

Dahl, Bettina; Kolmos, Anette – Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, 2015
At Aalborg University, engineering students spend half the time each semester in groups working on projects in a problem-based learning (PBL) curriculum. The projects are assessed through group exams, except for between 2007 and 2013 when the law forbade group-based project exams. Prior to 2007, a survey showed that students preferred the…

Polys, Nicholas F.; Bacim, Felipe; Setareh, Mehdi; Jones, Brett D. – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 2015
There has been a significant gap between the tools used for the design of a building's architectural form and those that evaluate the structural physics of that form. Seeking to bring the perspectives of visual design and structural engineering closer together, we developed and evaluated a design tool for students and practitioners to explore the…

Amy Huber – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2015
Dread is an unfortunate, yet all too common occurrence in the classroom. It often arises when a student has little motivation toward a class or its content. As an instructor of a traditionally "dreaded" class (Design History I), my goal was to seek ways to increase student motivation for the topic of design history and historic…
