DECO2015: Responsible Design for Innovation
2024 unit information
This unit of study introduces students to design strategies and techniques to foster inclusion and participation with a variety of stakeholders to develop alternative and responsible points of view in iterative design innovation. Through the analysis of real-world case studies students will develop an understanding for collaborative approaches to tackle complex problems. The unit will discuss how design can be used as a method and as a way of thinking to drive responsible innovation for products, services and processes. In the tutorial component, students will apply design strategies and techniques through small group exercises and develop a deeper understanding of them through the assessment items, which capture theory, analytical reflection, and the practical application of methods.
