摘要

世界经济论坛的“未来工作”报告强调，创造力是劳动力所需的最重要技能之一。提高STEM学生创造力的一个方法是从设计学科中汲取灵感。产品设计课程以创意为核心，遵循以产品为导向的学习策略，整合人文与科学的思想，将理论与实践相结合。课程的结构是为了支持来自不同课程的学生之间的多学科合作，带来新的想法，观点和技能。鼓励学生通过游戏和实验探索新的想法、材料和技术。教学在工作室环境中进行，而不是在演讲厅，使小组讨论和实践活动成为教学课程的一部分。如果来自设计世界的想法被整合到STEM课程中，也许学生的创造力和参与度会有所提高?

Integrating ideas from design disciplines into the STEM curricula

ABSTRACT The ‘Future of Jobs’ report from the World Economic Forum highlights that creativity is one of the most important skills needed by the workforce. One way of enhancing the creativity of students undertaking STEM subjects is by taking inspiration from design disciplines. The product design curriculum has creativity at its heart and follows a product oriented learning strategy, integrating ideas from the humanities and sciences, mixing theory and practice. The curriculum is structured to support multidisciplinary collaboration between students from different courses to bring in new ideas, perspectives and skills. Students are encouraged to explore new ideas, materials and technologies through play and experimentation. Teaching is undertaken in a studio environment rather than a lecture hall, enabling group discussions and practical activities to take place as part of teaching sessions. If ideas from the world of design are integrated into the STEM curricula, perhaps student creativity and engagement will improve?

期刊介绍： The aim of Higher Education Pedagogies is to identify, promote and publish excellence and innovations in the practice and theory of teaching and learning in and across all disciplines in higher education. The journal will provide an international forum for the sharing, dissemination and discussion of research, experience and perspectives across a wide range of teaching and learning issues. The journal will prove a valuable resource for individuals in the development and enhancement of their own practice, and for institutions in the promotion of the scholarship of teaching and learning. Higher Education Pedagogies will focus on disciplinary pedagogies and learning experiences; the higher education curriculum, i.e. what is taught and how it is developed and enhanced including both skills and knowledge; the delivery of the higher education curriculum; how it is taught and how students learn, and academic development; the role of teaching and learning in the development of academic careers and its place within the profession. Higher Education Pedagogies welcomes papers which are accessible to both specialist and generalist readers and are theoretically and empirically rigorous. Through advancing knowledge of, and practice in, teaching and learning, Higher Education Pedagogies will prove essential reading for all those who wish to stay informed of state-of-the-art teaching and learning developments in higher education. Higher Education Pedagogies is sponsored by the Higher Education Academy.
