Sensory Affect Learning Spaces and Design Education

<p>Through the lens of sensory affect this book offers a new way of thinking about day-to-day teaching and student engagement within learning spaces in design education.</p><p>The book examines the definitions concepts ideas and overlaps of a repertoire of learning spaces prevalent in higher education and addresses the pedagogical gap that exists between broader learning structures and spaces and the requirements of specialist design education. Recognising that mainstream teaching environments impact upon design studio learning and student engagement the book positions creative learning spaces at the heart of practice-based learning. It defines the underlying pedagogical philosophy of a creative learning space in design education and reports on how practical strategies incorporating sensory affect may be implemented by educators to foster better student engagement in these spaces within higher education.</p><p>Bringing much-needed attention to specialist design teaching and learning spaces in higher education this book will be of interest to educators researchers and post-graduate students immersed in design education pedagogy and learning spaces more broadly.</p>
