My teaching philosophy: Design education should not simply focus on career, but rather provide an opportunity to participate in a community of the mind, to broaden one’s perspective and understanding through a variety of studious experiences. It should help students to become acquainted with the problem-solving strategies and visual languages. I try to address three complementary areas of concern in our courses and curricula: professional skills (specialized training in hand skills and technological tools), design methodology (competence in issues related to design process, principles and theory) and general knowledge (general education in the liberal arts and sciences). Design curricula should incorporate theory, methodology, history and liberal studies intended to provide students with intellectual skills for a lifetime of learning, adaptation and problem-solving.
