Mapping Design: Cultural Cognitive Models in Design Process

这项研究项目的目的是确定如何将科学和技术研究中的成果应用于设计过程。这就需要从设计师的角度对设计和社会生活之间的关系进行更好的概念性和经验性的理解。最近关于认知-文化模型的研究将被用作弥合社会技术过程和“设计思维”之间差距的理论框架。开发一种方法论将是今年项目的重点。

The purpose of this research project is to identify how findings in Science and Technology Studies might be brought to bear on the processes of design. This necessitates developing a better conceptual and empirical understanding of the relationship between design and social life from the perspective of designers. Recent work on cognitive-cultural models will be used as a theoretical framework for bridging the gap between sociotechnical processes and `design thinking.` Developing a methodology will be the focus of this year's project.
