D&D-Developing Individual Design Skills within a Multi-disciplinary Group Project: Use of a Flipped Model

• In Event: D&D-Developing Individual Design Skills within a Multi-disciplinary Group Project: Use of a Flipped Model

Short Description

This design case describes the use of a flipped model to encourage individual work and collaboration rather than a divide-and-conquer approach to multi-disciplinary group projects. The Educational Software Design course presented poses unique challenges due to the multi-disciplinary nature of both the course material and the students enrolled. The addition of online discussions pushed students outside of their comfort zone to apply what they learned individually and critique other’s work before integrating into the collaborative project.
