INTRODUCTION A familiar activity to students of design is the design review – where students present their work-to-date to receive feedback and guidance from others. They take place throughout the term, providing students with multiple opportunities to present and develop their ideas (Schön, 1987). At Georgia Tech, we have been exploring how simple technologies can be used to increase opportuni...

We have conducted a series of interdisciplinary studios that partner students in the School of Architecture with peers in the College of Computing Sciences, with two principal goals: to foster creativity in the development of information technology, and conversely, to support creativity through information technology. Our studio project focuses on ubiquitous social computing as a topic of inter...

The School of Arts and Communication at Malmö University organizes research in cross-disciplinary designoriented studios. A newly established research studio is concerned with the design of technology-augmented creative environments. In this paper we present the conceptual framework underlying the research projects in the studio and give examples of research initiatives. The studio investigates...

For several of Leonardo da Vinci's paintings, such as The Virgin and Child with St Anne or the Mona Lisa, there exist copies produced by his own studio. In case of the Mona Lisa, a quite exceptional, rediscovered studio copy was presented to the public in 2012 by the Prado Museum in Madrid. Not only does it mirror its famous counterpart superficially; it also features the very same corrections ...

In this paper we present PRACTIONIST Studio, which is an integrated design and development environment for BDI agent-based systems, providing facilities and tools to represent the concepts and intentional elements underlying such a model as well as several common features offered by UMLbased tools. PRACTIONIST Studio aims at bridging the gap between the increasing trend of developing BDI-based ...

The GPS units are presented as a powerful technology enabling students to learn basic ideas of motion, along with concepts of physical geography. The use of GPS technology in this way is a form of studio based education (close-to-life collaborative construction contexts). Such a context enables students to construct and analyze their own data, thus providing an opportunity to develop critical g...
