Abstract
Engineering aims to solve consequential, real-world problems. To be effective problem-solvers in societal contexts, engineers and designers must be trained to conceptualize and operationalize ethics, equity, and justice in their practice. Our work develops a methodology – based on the Design Justice framework – for ethics, equity, and justice audits of design pedagogy. We apply this methodology to audit design and design critique courses at a technology institution – the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Through this audit we identify exemplar courses as well as ways in which courses fail to engage with ethics, equity, and justice. This audit, the largest of its kind, is a proof of concept of how the audit methodology can be applied to design education and practice.
工程学旨在解决现实世界的重大问题。为了在社会环境中成为有效的问题解决者，工程师和设计师必须接受培训，在实践中概念化和操作化道德、公平和正义。我们的工作开发了一种基于设计公正框架的方法，用于设计教学的道德、公平和公正审计。我们将这种方法应用于麻省理工学院(Massachusetts Institute of technology)一家科技机构的设计和设计评论课程。通过这次审计，我们确定了模范课程以及课程未能参与道德，公平和正义的方式。这次审计是同类审计中规模最大的一次，是审计方法如何应用于设计教育和实践的概念证明。
期刊介绍：
Design Studies is a leading international academic journal focused on developing understanding of design processes. It studies design activity across all domains of application, including engineering and product design, architectural and urban design, computer artefacts and systems design. It therefore provides an interdisciplinary forum for the analysis, development and discussion of fundamental aspects of design activity, from cognition and methodology to values and philosophy.
Design Studies publishes work that is concerned with the process of designing, and is relevant to a broad audience of researchers, teachers and practitioners. We welcome original, scientific and scholarly research papers reporting studies concerned with the process of designing in all its many fields, or furthering the development and application of new knowledge relating to design process. Papers should be written to be intelligible and pertinent to a wide range of readership across different design domains. To be relevant for this journal, a paper has to offer something that gives new insight into or knowledge about the design process, or assists new development of the processes of designing.
