ACT! Symposium: Action Pedagogy
Monday, April 18, 2:00 pm – 8:00 pm | GSD Stubbins Room (112)
The symposium reviews the findings from ACT! WORKSHOP in the context of the discourse on design pedagogy. During the afternoon panel discussions, workshop participants – guests and students – share their conclusions and proposals with a diverse group of respondents from the academy and practice.
In the evening, a roundtable discussion convenes a group of educators and practitioners to collect and exchange reflections on how the experiences from the three case studies informs design education. This discussion uses the notion of action pedagogy to envision new ways for integrating education with practice. The roundtable also explores the potential for developing a platform
to continue this conversation on an ongoing basis.
