Abstract

Communication with external audiences is a critical task within the design process. Yet, we lack fundamental knowledge about how designers communicate design solutions and decisions to such audiences. This is particularly problematic for novice designers, as without such knowledge, we cannot develop pedagogical interventions to train novices as effective communicators. In this work, we study two strategies used by novices to communicate design knowledge – argumentation and prototypes. Through a move analysis and Markov modelling, we identified six unique rhetorical moves and how novices transitioned between them. We also identified several justifications and rhetorical devices used by novices that were driven by prototyping efforts. Educators can utilize these results to support students in scaffolding communication skills to develop design communication expertise.

新手设计师讲述的故事:修辞结构和原型如何塑造与外部受众的沟通

在设计过程中，与外部受众的沟通是一项关键任务。然而，我们缺乏关于设计师如何向这些受众传达设计解决方案和决策的基本知识。这对于新手设计师来说尤其成问题，因为如果没有这些知识，我们就无法开发教学干预来训练新手成为有效的沟通者。在这项工作中，我们研究了初学者用来交流设计知识的两种策略——论证和原型。通过移动分析和马尔可夫模型，我们确定了六种独特的修辞移动以及新手如何在它们之间转换。我们还确定了由原型工作驱动的新手使用的几个理由和修辞手段。教育工作者可以利用这些结果来支持学生的脚手架沟通技巧，以发展设计沟通专业知识。

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.
