Infrastructure Tools, Platforms and Digital Methods for Virtual and Hybrid Industrial Design Studio.
The systematic of the VID studio system will be defined as the interaction of architecture and engineering. Thus, the following components will be integrated into the VID studio.
• Digital labs, workshop and simulations: EINSTUDIO will have online tools in which students are asked to mimic an experiment and or select appropriate material, production method and joints. Non-static representations of physical phenomena; that is, representations that seek to show movement of elements that make up a physical phenomenon.
• Just -in- Time Teaching: Assignments to prepare students prepare for virtual studio class (WarmUps, Puzzles and GoodFor etc.).
• Collaborative & Interactive Learning: Variety of ways for students to collaborate online, including synchronous and asynchronous discussions and small group assignments
• Metacognitive Awareness: Behaviours that helps the online learners to have more autonomy and responsibility for carrying out the learning process
• Multimodal Content: An abundance of interactive and multimodal materials will be provided
• Immediate Feedback: Interactive online discussion board for students
• Team-based learning: Structured form of small-group learning
• Learner-Centered Education: With the instructor serving as facilitator
• Individual Augmented Reality options provided by the own sources of partner universities for visualizing three-dimensional virtual objects interactively in real space.
European ID Studio Implementation and Assessment Phase 1
First implementation of VID Studio by the planned learning approach and assessment method for 15 weeks. Final jury of the first VID Studio projects of transnational student teams (E4). Final jury of the second VID Studio projects of transnational student teams (E5). This will be a unique systematic methodology to be initially used around Europe and to be tested initially by a group of 65 transnational students in a team work. Students can reveal a relationship between the obtained data and the new knowledge with IBL through research, in other words, the cause_x0002_effect relationship. Cause-effect express the relationship between two phenomena caused by one phenomenon behind another. The evaluation and quality assurance frameworks will be prepared for pilot implementation including the measurement of the VID Studio through end-term surveys, instant feedback from the students after each course, instructor evaluation questionnaires and periodical evaluation questionnarires for the partnership management and implementation system.
European ID Studio Implementation and Assessment Phase 2
First implementation of VID Studio by the planned learning approach and assessment method for 15 weeks. The EINSTUDIO VID Studio Learning Platform (R1) together with the determined learning approaches and methods will be used by 65 transnational students of GU, AU and UBI as well as 11 instructors. Implementation and Assessment Phase 2 will contain 2 project processes. Systematically IBL structured VID Studio will consists of 3 main phases and 8 consecutive steps:
• Analytical Phase (Programming, Data Collection)
• Creative Phase (Primary Analysis, Secondary Analysis, Synthesis, Hypothesis),
• Visualization Phase (Preliminary Design, Final Design). A New conceptual ID Matrix will be created by using the EINSTUDIO Learning Platform tool for the students to process the decisions they make in each step. Students will be asked to develop projects with this process matrix. The main difference of this second phase from the first one will be to move forward from conceptual design to productive design. Thus, appropraite materials together with joints and production methods will be defined and produced by the transnational student teams for the related projects. The evaluation and quality assurance framework mentioned for the first phase will be applied also in this phase.
Guidelines, Recognition and Sustainability through the Modified VID Studio Tools and Curricula
The objective is to inform subsequent instructors and training providers for ID bachelor students for VID Studio Learning Platform, tools and learning approached tested and validated through the pilot testing in Implementation phases. State of the art of the new integration of the tools and obtained best practices from the Implementation phases. The Guide follows the VID Studio stucture including experiences and resolutions experienced over time, comprising: The knowledge, expertise and assumptions brought to the course by the partnership, Organising and support structure and VID Studio system Einstudio, Ways, cultures and indoctrinations of working and thinking in transnational means, The elements that make up the active learning and integrated tools, The learning outcomes through IBL learning approach and concepts for the new assessment method, The good practices observed during R2 and R3. Reconition and Validation Procedure, establishing a network consortium of VID Studio with three universities to be involved in a degree program (GU, UA, UBI). Further recognition and validation processes beyond the end of the project. The official recognition and validation procedure to be determined within the partnership will also be applied to the initial participants (students) of VID Studio from three partner Universities.
