Yinmiao Li; Xiaoyang Zhou; Daragh Byrne; Marti Louw – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2024
Within creative domains in studio- and project-based education, documentation is often central to demonstrating outcomes, process, and progress. Despite much prior work into the instructional practices, technologies, and tools that support cultivating documentation practices, no prior work explores the student valuing and perception of…

Parmentier, Davy Daniël; Van Acker, Bram Boris; Saldien, Jelle; Detand, Jan – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2021
Desired affordances and appropriate product semantics are important when considering products that are easy to use and easy to understand. Despite affordances and product semantics being taught in some design educations, many designers in industry do not explicitly consider affordances nor product semantics during the design process. This is…

Abd-Elwahed, M. S.; Al-Bahi, A. M. – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2021
Engineers play a vital role in enabling the sustainable development of their societies. Thus, it is necessary to teach sustainability in universities, especially for engineering students, for a more sustainable future. The present work aims to measure and enhance engineering students' awareness of sustainability by monitoring and evaluating…

Baaki, John; Luo, Tian – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2019
Responding to a call to create an authentic learning environment where instructional design students find meaning in what is being designed, we asked student design teams to respond to: give us something to react to and make it rich. Student designers took stock in, reacted to, and reflected on rich external representations, for three class…

Vossen, T. E.; Tigelaar, E. H.; Henze, I.; De Vries, M. J.; Van Driel, J. H. – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2020
Technological design is a core activity in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education. During the design process, students often employ research activities to enhance the quality of their design decisions and to rise above a mere trial-and-error approach to designing. There are many functions of research within the design…

Graff, Daniel; Clark, Mark A. – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2019
Universities increasingly incorporate multidisciplinary design projects into their curriculum to better prepare their students for the labor market. In these projects, student team members of various disciplinary backgrounds develop new product or service concepts for organizational partners. This structure enables students to learn not only from…

Karppinen, Seija; Kallunki, Veera; Komulainen, Kauko – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2019
The paper discusses how a teaching approach, "interdisciplinary design and invention pedagogy," affected primary school student teachers' learning outcomes through the craft design process in pre-service teacher education. This study applies developmental work research (Engeström in J Educ Work 14(1):133-156, 2001; Engeström in…

Miller, W. Stuart; Summers, Joshua D. – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2013
The authors describe a preliminary study to understand the attitude of engineering students regarding the use of design methods in projects to identify the factors either affecting or influencing the use of these methods by novice engineers. A senior undergraduate capstone design course at Clemson University, consisting of approximately fifty…

Lou, Shi Jer; Liu, Yi Hui; Shih, Ru Chu; Tseng, Kuo Hung – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2011
The purpose of the study was to explore a learning behavioral model of project-based learning (PBL) for senior high school students in the context of STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics). Using "audio speakers" as the project theme, a series of tasks were designed to be solved using STEM knowledge via an online…
