EduCHI 2023 Master Class #2: Building Student Capacity to Engage with Design Methods



Knowledge of design methods is critical for careers in User Experience (UX) design and other fields commonly served by HCI programs. In this masterclass, we will seek to bring together the knowledge contained in key texts commonly used in HCI education and the evident pedagogical challenges that underlie codified methods knowledge. Such fundamental questions at this intersection include: What kind of knowledge do methods contain? How do students learn about methods? and How do we know when students have sufficient knowledge of methods to continue engaging in adaptation, use, and creation in the future? We will collaboratively address these questions, laying the groundwork for participants to consider the following issues in their own curriculum.
