Title:
Personalized Learning Support for Creative Design Reasoning
Every learner is different from various points of views including cognitive preferences and learning styles. Creativity involves various cognitive and affective elements that are combined to form the basis of design problem solving ability. Every design task may also have many issues. Apparently creative design reasoning presents many challenging learning research issues. According to McKim, who led the pioneering product design education at Stanford, design ideation process involves iterative interactions of seeing, imagining and drawing. Experiences in this process can be obtained through visual reasoning exercises where visual analysis, visual synthesis and modeling are interactively engaged. A learning support system called Intelligent Visual Reasoning Tutor (IVRT) has been developed so that personalized critiquing in visual reasoning can be given. My talk will provide explanations on the current capabilities of IVRT as well as other research results on diagnosing learner characteristics. Also various other efforts at the Creative Design Institute in design education will be briefly discussed.
