Welcome to a new design community. 👋🏻 We are inviting all formal and informal teachers within the design industry to Design Education – a safe space to swap and share knowledge, experiences, research, ideas and insights – in order to improve the conditions for learning design.

Are you a designer? We need your help!
We want to hear from designers to learn how the roles and job titles in design are changing. We’ll use these insights to help us assess the scale and value of the UK’s #designeconomy.

Love seeing initiatives like this! Also, how can we help? /JT
“The Future of Design Education Initiative is as multifaceted and complicated as the world of education itself, but its mission is clear: to develop a new framework of design curricula for the future…”

LEGOs are a timeless classic.
And the story behind their success has eerie similarities to what's happening in our education system.

I'm curating a new list of school, tools and orgs that are changing the shape of learning / education.
I'd love your help adding to the list, I've been focused on US and England but i'm sure this movement is happening all over!

Creative leaders - where do you go to actively seek grads/ juniors from diverse backgrounds?
Asking for a friend. Says he's getting CV's/ books only from 'Harriet and Hugh' so interested in ideas/methods/ resources to balance the books. Thanks!

Heads up I’ve moved my page with techniques and tools for teaching online to my blog.
I have too many spaces for publishing. So I am trying to consolidate but also make content more accessible.
