Design Matters Syllabus
In this summer school course, students will be immersing themselves in the design process and in so doing, learning how a designer approaches a problem. By the end of the course, students will have gained an introductory knowledge of the aspects of design, mechanisms, architecture, and 3D design in the digital age.
Student participation is at the core of this experience. Students will work in teams and will be challenged to create different products through research, critical thinking, and team collaboration and communication. Teams will test their products, record data, and make adjustments in order to improve designs. Final solutions and products will be presented.
