“…Like in the previous cluster, the use of DT in various educational contexts is a prevalent theme. The top publication is a case study by Cooke et al (2020), which focuses on combining gamification and DT in education to increase students' ability to solve wicked problems in a digital storytelling course. Other dominant documents focus on the possibilities of using DT for developing entrepreneurship skills in digital and technology intense environments (Laptev and Shaytan, 2021;Lynch et al, 2021) and on applying DT in media management education (Lugmayr et al, 2014).…”

Recent research suggests that design thinking practices may foster the development of needed capabilities in new digitalised landscapes. However, existing publications represent individual contributions, and we lack a holistic understanding of the value of design thinking in a digital world. No review, to date, has offered a holistic retrospection of this research. In response, in this bibliometric review, we aim to shed light on the intellectual structure of multidisciplinary design thinking literature related to capabilities relevant to the digital world in higher education and business settings, highlight current trends and suggest further studies to advance theoretical and empirical underpinnings. Our study addresses this aim using bibliometric methods—bibliographic coupling and co-word analysis as they are particularly suitable for identifying current trends and future research priorities at the forefront of the research. Overall, bibliometric analyses of the publications dealing with the related topics published in the last 10 years (extracted from the Web of Science database) expose six trends and two possible future research developments highlighting the expanding scope of the design thinking scientific field related to capabilities required for the (more sustainable and human-centric) digital world. Relatedly, design thinking becomes a relevant approach to be included in higher education curricula and human resources training to prepare students and workers for the changing work demands. This paper is well-suited for education and business practitioners seeking to embed design thinking capabilities in their curricula and for design thinking and other scholars wanting to understand the field and possible directions for future research.

“…And Carrie Leverenz (2014) argued that adopting design thinking practices, such as prototyping and design briefs, could help connect the writing classroom to the outside world. Numerous others have taken up these arguments to explore the application of design thinking to a variety of specific writing classes (Belcher, 2017;Cooke et al, 2020;Khadka, 2018;Lane, 2018;McCarthy, 2016;VanKooten & Berkley, 2016;Wickman, 2014). Further information on many of these papers can be found in Rebecca Pope-Ruark, Joe Moses, and Jason Tham's (2019) useful bibliography of the design thinking literature.…”

“…Armfield et al (2012) explored how TPC teachers can be more “digitally savvy” given the increasing demands for high-tech instruction. More recently, Tham (2021b) joined a growing group of scholar-teachers who recommend a “maker” manifest in TPC education to give students the necessary opportunities to address social problems with design tools that can turn ideas into reality (Bay et al, 2018; Breaux, 2017; Cooke et al, 2020; Pellegrini, 2022; Wible, 2020). These thing-based, contextually influenced approaches to composing and multimodality emphasize the active and dynamic role of tangible materials, and the vitality of their interplay with learning and writing.…”

This study examines the role of multimodality in facilitating service-learning goals. We report findings from qualitative interviews with 20 college instructors who have designed and facilitated multimodal community-engaged learning projects, identifying their motivations, goals, and the impact of these projects through reflections. Based on our qualitative analysis of these instructor responses, we discuss the technological and pedagogical implications of multimodal social advocacy projects in technical and professional writing courses.
