Collaboration in Design Education

A comprehensive guide for students and practicing designers who want to incorporate a collaborative approach in their design practice. Experienced designers and design educators Marty Maxwell Lane introduce a range of case studies collaboration between individuals and groups, face-to-face or remotely. The book addresses the basics of getting started, planning ahead, and reflecting on outcomes, alongside the issues that come up in collaborative work - for example, cross-cultural exchange, or managing roles within a diverse team. Editorial commentary runs throughout the chapter introductions and case studies, with informatics illustrating simple to complex concepts, and expanded 'call out' points in the margin. More complex case studies offer a “deep dive” section to explain and share further details of the projects.
