We explore\u00a0design\u00a0meanings and theory, to understand\u00a0design\u00a0in\u00a0our lives,\u00a0in\u00a0education, and\u00a0the\u00a0world.<\/p>\n<p>A multi-dimensional issue like\u00a0design, particularly\u00a0in\u00a0education, requires a multifaceted approach. As a class, we will do many different things this semester. We will read, discuss, analyze widely from research and theory. We will examine\u00a0design\u00a0practice, and build new conceptions through exciting projects.\u00a0Most importantly, participants\u00a0in\u00a0this course will engage with\u00a0real-world problems, through compelling field experiences around urgent initiatives that\u00a0the\u00a0Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College is working on.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/punyamishra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/punya-sign-anim.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4593\" src=\"https:\/\/punyamishra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/punya-sign-anim.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"70\" height=\"70\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":0,"template":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/punyamishra.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pedagogy\/5228"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/punyamishra.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pedagogy"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/punyamishra.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/pedagogy"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/punyamishra.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5228"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
