ÖgeBeyond the product: Expanding orders of design and its implications for industrial design education in Turkey(Graduate School, 2021-07-27) Duman, Seda ; Timur, Şebnem ; 502132904 ; Industrial Product DesignThis dissertation explores the expanding field of the industrial design discipline and its implications for undergraduate industrial design education in Turkey. Even with the most cursory review of the recent literature, one can easily see that the scope of the industrial design discipline is getting broader, and both the design profession and discipline are going through a radical change. This thesis study portrays this evolution throughout the key historical movements and investigates correlations with the current status of industrial design education in Turkey. The main argument is that we need a new educational framework to assist future designers to find their ways and roles amid the ambiguity of the 21st century's complex problems and act responsibly for sustainable change. The whole research consists of three main stages that follow and support each other. At the first stage, a broad range of literature was reviewed to create a landscape for the reader providing an overall understanding of the disciplinary and professional evolution of the field. Different taxonomy models systematically portraying the expanded field of design were collected. They were analyzed to extract patterns and content to develop a specific framework for exploring and informing industrial design programs. As an outcome of the literature review and synthesis, an integrated model– Orders of Design Education (ODE) was developed. The proposed model- with its supplements- was utilized as a research tool and an organizing schema for the whole content of this thesis. ODE was specifically designed for evaluating and developing industrial design curricula and projects from the synthesis of the related ordering frameworks in the literature. This framework is the first contribution of this research to the design education literature. It can be used as a diagnostic or exploratory tool to analyze a complete program, as well as can provide a basis for constituting independent design courses or projects. The second stage was for exploring the current status and scope of industrial design education in Turkey. The exploratory research was carried out by mutual evaluation of the content analysis of the program curricula with the survey study. The primary purpose of the survey study was to obtain embedded information about the qualities of studio projects and the coverage of competencies. The second purpose was distilling exemplary educational practices and projects from the answers for further investigation. To support and elaborate the gathered information through survey study, the curricula of the participating departments and their course contents were examined within the scope of content analysis. The third and last stage was a focused one. It presents the identified exemplary curricular structures and projects in detail. Following the exploratory phases of the research, case studies were undertaken in five industrial departments in Turkey. The main purpose of the evaluation of these cases was to reveal exemplary educational practices at industrial design departments in Turkey and accordingly to nourish the future developments of design education. The final stages of this research were written in a critical transition period in education and other social settings. It was during the global Covid-19 outbreak and when educational institutions switched to online education. Virus outbreak suspended in-person lectures and forced design schools, studios, and events to switch digital learning platforms. New norms are being built in design education, and this is reshaping many conventional processes of designing, producing, communicating, and teaching. The case studies presented in this thesis, collocate pioneer experiences so far in industrial design education. It includes alternative pedagogical practices carried out in different spaces and time intervals, in different networks (virtual, in-house, external networks) with the participation of various actors. It is predicted that the information and experiences gathered from case studies and the Orders of Design Education framework which was designed within the scope of this thesis will contribute to the research and development activities in the field of industrial design education.
