Teaching HCI Design With the Studio Approach

Development of design expertise by architecture students

“…The traditional design studio is the avenue for dissemination of relevant knowledge and learning of design skills. The design studio, according to Reimer and Douglas (2003), "involves experiential, immersive pedagogy based on learning by doing in a purely interactive context" (p. 194). Lawson and Dorst (2009) recognised the place of the studio in the development of design expertise in students.…”

Firstly, physical space and resources can affect the kinds of activities that the studio can support (Shaffer, 2003).…”

Rethinking HCI Education for Design: Problem-Based Learning and Virtual Worlds at an HCI Design Studio

“…Faiola, 2007;Nordahl & Serafin, 2008);(b) others enhance the traditional project-based approach of HCI courses with teaching methods that promote design practice (Harrison et al, 2006;Biskjaer et al 2010);(c) others have developed HCI design studio courses (Reimer & Douglas 2003;Greenberg, 2009;Blevis, 2010;Hundhausen et al, 2010). …”

In their course they provide students with a set of projects highlighting design issues that students should focus and they let students work in groups to deliver design solutions.…”
