ENGS 15.11 - Design & Education

Description

This course explores intellectual synergies between design and education including three explicit intersections: how design methods help us create better learning experiences; how design pedagogies can be valuable to the instruction of non-design subjects; and how human-centered design might help us address persistent problems in education systems. In an attempt to practice what it preaches, this course does not use the standard letter grading system–please inquire with the instructor about implications for your minors/modifications.

Prerequisites

One of: ENGS 12, EDUC 01, EDUC 17, EDUC 27, EDUC 32; or instructor permission
