Description:

The idea of the workshop is to share examples and experiences of using design experiments and design games in an educational setting. A second aim is to discuss foundation, methodology and the theoretical framing of such activities in design education. Last, but not least the workshop invites participants to contribute to a resource book on design experiments and design games for design educators and their students.
