Teaching Otherwise: A framework for shifting colonial grounds in design education
Jananda Lima, Nadine Hare
About this video
Description
In this presentation, Jananda and Nadine share a case study for design education that is grounded in relationality based on their experience of teaching in the Master’s programme at OCAD U and their lived experiences of collaborating with marginalized communities. They present their process for developing this framework (including the impasses that got them there), the key principles within this framework (collaborative, embodied, pluriversal and equitable), techniques and tools to apply it and feedback from learners. Our hope is that the audience will be inspired to experiment with underexplored ways of “teaching” and practising design.
