Experience design education involves developing the whole person—a designer who speaks the language of holistic experiences.
What learning experiences and curricular formats effectively develop experience-centered designers who will create products based on people’s physical makeup, cultural background, and emotional states?
Experience-centered design education extends beyond creating visually appealing designs. It involves developing the whole person—a designer who speaks the language of holistic experiences. These designers can research and ask important questions like:
What’s really going on here?
What is the root cause of the problem?
How can my design best match peoples’ needs and preferences?
As a design educator, I’m always seeking ways to develop learning experiences that foster the knowledge, thinking, and skills necessary to create outcomes that consider the person’s whole experience.
