- 1. A Review of Sustainability within Product and Industrial Design Courses in British Universities Matthew Watkins Email: M.A.Watkins@lboro.ac.uk
Notas del editor
- The focus of my PhD is
- The purpose of this question was to determine how many academics considered sustainable design to include social, environmental and economic considerations.
- This was in contrast to findings in literature.
- Multiple names were given for some requirements in case an academic was more familiar with one than an other universal and inclusive design are an example of this. Criteria that received a low response were not universally understood an example of this was emotionally durable design.
- Other include: the philosophy of product design, optional contextual studies modules in sustainability, focused lectures with knowledge being applied through design projects or discreetly through group or individual discussion in a tutorial or seminar setting.
- 70% of respondents claimed at least a full working knowledge of sustainable design
- Over 50% stated that they would find detailed resources and guidance helpful
- Almost a quarter of the respondents were members of the Design Research Society, whilst over a quarter were subscribed to a variety of email groups.
- The main limitation identified in the questionnaire were the incomplete responses mainly due to two questions And completed the rest of the questionnaire
- Emails were sent to academics of incomplete surveys to remind them that they could return and complete the surveys, this was successful in a number of cases.
- Suggesting that despite misunderstanding the full meaning of the term they teach all aspects
- Which is a strong consensus for such a radical change in the curriculum.
