Directing Convergent and Divergent Activity through Design Feedback.

AbstractDesign education across design disciplines prioritizes project-based courses to support student learning aboutdesign processes and strategies (Eastman, Newstetter, & McCracken, 1999; Smith, Sheppard, Johnson, &Johnson, 2005). Success in teaching these courses relies on the ability of instructors to mentor and guidestudents' design paths, allowing students some freedom to determine design decisions on their own, whilefacilitating a structure where they can learn successful design strategies.
