Early Experiences with Interdisciplinary Design Studios
نویسندگان
چکیده
This project aims to foster creativity in computer science education by applying the studio paradigm common in architecture and fine arts. It joins architecture and computer science students in interdisciplinary teams to design installations for ubiquitous social computing. At the same time, it uses existing social computing infrastructure, such as video conferencing and touch-screen displays, to enhance communication and foster creativity in both departments. We employ both qualitative methodologies and quantitative data to assess the learning and behavioral impact. The challenges are not only technical, but also cultural and administrative.
