Research on the Reform of Basic Art Course of Industrial Design Major from the Perspective of Teaching and Learning

Design development is one of the processes in the teaching and learning of industrial design. This process is important during the early stage of ideas before continuing to the next design stage. This study was conducted to investigate the comparison between academic syllabus and industry practices whether these processes are highly dependent on the idea generation and interaction related to the designer or to the student itself. The data were gathered through an observation of industry practice during conceptual design phase, teaching and learning process in academic through Video Protocol Analysis (VPA) method and interviews with industry practitioners via structured and unstructured questionnaires. The data were analysed by using NVivo software in order to formulate the results. The findings may possibly contribute to the teaching and learning processes especially in the improvement of industrial design syllabus in order to meet the industry demands.

Design Ideas

This research studies the teaching process of idea communication for industrial product design sketching. The objective of this research is to make a comparative study on the efficiency of two teaching processes between teaching with detailed information and teaching with conceptual frameworks for groups of students who have different learning aptitudes; which are an aptitude in theoretical subjects or an aptitude in practical subjects. The study also included differences in learning styles of the industrial design program undergraduate students. The researchers came up with an experiment of creating sketch design ideas for a product in which the researchers classified the students’ learning processes from curriculum subjects and academic achievements. The results found that curriculum subjects and students’ learning aptitude can be grouped into two major groups: students who have accumulated scores in theoretical subjects and students who have accumulated scores in practical subjects. These two groups of students have different aptitudes in sketch design idea communication processes: a process of sketching with given detailed information and a process of sketching with given conceptual framework. Although these are different processes, the teaching and learning of these two product design processes have the same objectives: to create design ideas and to support design creativity by using the concept of interaction between the brain, hands and shapes that appear on paper to present the sketch product and to guide the teaching and learning of industrial product design, suitable for students who have different characteristics and help increase their academic achievements.

Abstract The intent of this article is to share my research endeavors in order to raise awareness of issues relative to what and how we teach as a means to spark interest in applying the scholarship of teaching and learning to what we do as faculty in communication sciences and disorders (CSD). My own interest in teaching and learning emerged rather abruptly after I introduced academic service-learning (AS-L) into one of my graduate courses (Stevens, 2002). To better prepare students to enter our profession, I have provided them with unique learning opportunities working with various community partners including both speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and teachers who supported persons with severe communication disorders.

Abstract The use of podcasting is incredibly widespread, with experts estimating that 60 million Americans will be using podcasting in some form by 2010. The use of podcasting has grown beyond entertainment to become an educational tool, showing promise as a way to disseminate information and create networks of professional learners. However, despite the growing clinical and educational uses of podcasting in other professional disciplines, podcasting is being used primarily as a continuing education tool for speech-language pathologists and audiologists at this time. This article provides guidelines and examines the potential applications for use of podcasting in teaching and learning in communication sciences and disorders.
