Problem Solving through Design.

Nelson, Wayne A.

New Directions for Teaching and Learning, n95 p39-44 Fall 2003

Using the metaphor of "design studios," this article offers an example of how a professor implemented a problem-solving-through-design model. Based on this example, professors can redistribute resources and reconsider the role of both students and professors to support "design" as a method of problem solving. (SWM)
