Workshops create a collaborative and/or sharing environment that supports our design education and turns it into an interactive one. They are important meeting places for students who continue their design education in different disciplines in different places to communicate and provide common working platforms. Therefore, such organisations,…

Purpose: This paper aims to reveal learning potential in crossing disciplinary boundaries in facilitated workshops by exploring the research goal definition process of interdisciplinary research teams. It uses multilevel boundary crossing as a theoretical framework to illustrate the multilevel nature of team learning mechanisms in…

Three Yale University librarians from different departments collaborated on a Workshop Incentive Program to increase library workshop attendance, streamline outreach, and strengthen partnerships.

Focusing on health education as its context, this article considers the question of how to equip students with strategies to identify and resist misinformation. In doing so, it confronts a key problem for health services nationally and globally, which is the problem of entrenched compartmentalisation. The relationship between these two key issues…

A two-part workshop connecting environmental science topics and green chemistry principles for undergraduate students is described. Students first collect acorns and rusted metal for dye and mordant baths. After 2 weeks they are invited back to tie-dye cotton fabric using dye baths prepared from steeped acorns and modify these colors using mordant…

Interprofessional collaboration in healthcare professionals promotes patient-centred care.

The architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) education communities are increasingly facing challenges caused by social, technological, economic, environmental, and political changes. Addressing these issues requires AEC educators and practitioners to systematically rethink and reform many of their current practices. Anecdotal evidence in…

Few university students in Italy today possess the necessary skills to read a musical score. Consequently, alternative strategies are needed in order to visualize -- and hence to memorise -- music. This is the main reason underpinning the pilot laboratory of musical architecture, which was launched in 2019 as university workshop thanks to the…
