This chapter discusses the implications of designing, perception, comprehension, communication and collaboration within the framework of an ‘Immersive Virtual Environment Design Studio’. It has been suggested that the unique properties of immersive virtual environments can empower designers to express, explore and convey their imagination more easily. For these reasons the very different nature...

In an interaction design studio students develop interactive products with emphasis on collaboration, creativity and method use. Typically the goals of interaction design studios are to let students acquire the practical skills to apply theories and methods from relevant courses in the context of a real-world problem, and to develop their collaborative and organizational abilities that will be ...

AppDev Studio 2.0 provides SAS custom tags to enable quick and easy creation of Java Server Pages (JSPs) to access SAS data. However, extensive reliance on these tags limits an application’s functional and architectural options. Fortunately, AppDev Studio provides the Java classes behind these tags, allowing developers to leverage the full power of Java and object oriented methodologies such as...

INTRODUCTION A familiar activity to students of design is the design review – where students present their work-to-date to receive feedback and guidance from others. They take place throughout the term, providing students with multiple opportunities to present and develop their ideas (Schön, 1987). At Georgia Tech, we have been exploring how simple technologies can be used to increase opportuni...

The Vanderbilt Institute for Clinical and Translational Research implemented the "Studio" Program in 2007 to bring together experts to provide free, structured, project-specific feedback for medical researchers. Studios are a series of integrated, dynamic, and interactive roundtable discussions that bring relevant research experts from diverse academic disciplines together to focus on a specifi...

In the developing world, skills in innovation and creative design have emerged as key attributes for graduating designers. Creativity is essential if we want to generate new solutions to the considerable and complex problems in architecture. Metaphor is frequently expressed as a key tool for enhancing creative design, yet little empirical research has been performed on how novice designers can ...

Within the context of an introductory CS1 unit on algorithmic problem-solving, we are exploring the pedagogical value of a novel active learning activity—the “studio experience”—that actively engages learners with algorithm visualization technology. In a studio experience, student pairs are tasked with (a) developing a solution to an algorithm design problem, (b) constructing an accompanying vi...

The School of Arts and Communication at Malmö University organizes research in cross-disciplinary designoriented studios. A newly established research studio is concerned with the design of technology-augmented creative environments. In this paper we present the conceptual framework underlying the research projects in the studio and give examples of research initiatives. The studio investigates...

COVID-19 outbreak has set the beginning of new normal in many parts world. The impact was recognized all sectors, including higher education. Many ways teaching and learning are taking place. Despite lockdowns social distancing that transformed on-site classrooms to online classrooms, architecture design studio programs should also adapt respond pandemic as well contribute society by real-world...
