Overall objective is the creation and development of digital learning environments related to design. focus on knowledge creation, storing, dissemination of design education in four sectors - university, industry and the informal sector. Introduction: Digital-learning environment for Design
At present: 20 design institutes + over 100 commercial art colleges in India + over 10,000 skill based institutes. - expected to grow exponentially Need to expose the non-formal sector about innovation, human factors, quality and aesthetics through understanding of design. Visual medium is suited to explain, understand and learn aspects of design. Rationale: Digital-learning environment for Design
1. Digital online content for learning design with distance e-learning programs on design 2. Social networking for higher learning with collaborative learning space for design - for synchronous and asynchronous interaction 3. Digital design resource database (including the craft sector) 4. Design inputs for products of National Mission in Education through ICT Key themes: Digital-learning environment for Design
Create online content for design learning Create systems for online learning through distance education Synchronous live transmission of demos, case studies, lectures, workshops, etc. 1. Digital online content for learning Design: Digital-learning environment for Design
Design Studios <> Classrooms Week long Modules <> Hourly Lectures Demos, Case studies, Examples <> Class Lectures Project Based learning <> Text book learning Experiential learning <> Memory based learning Creative Problem Solving <> Method based Solving 1. Learning Design: Digital-learning environment for Design
Create a social networking platform for design learning Create a collaborative space for both synchronous and as well as asynchronous design learning Active interactions between learners and educators 2. Social networking platform for design learning: Digital-learning environment for Design
2. Design Networking: Digital-learning environment for Design
Create systems for documentation of existing knowledge of design and crafts Create access to this information database ( will become a national resource and treasure) 3. Digital Design Resource Database: Digital-learning environment for Design
The participating design institutes can provide design inputs to the various products of the mission Inputs could in form of Product Design, Visual Communication Design and Interface/Interaction Design. 4. Design Inputs for Products of this National Mission: Digital-learning environment for Design
Pilot Phase6 months Project Phase I1 ½ years (implementing) Project Phase II1 year (testing & consolidating) Project Phase IIIafter 3 years (systems for continuity) Project duration: Digital-learning environment for Design
