Description
Public Interest Design Education Guidebook: Curricula, Strategies, and SEED Academic Case Studies presents the pedagogical framework and collective curriculum necessary to teach public interest designers. The second book in Routledge's Public Interest Design Guidebook series, the editors and contributors feature a range of learning competencies supported by distinct teaching strategies where educational and community-originated goals unite. Written in a guidebook format that includes projects from across design disciplines, this book describes the learning deemed most critical to pursuing an inclusive, informed design practice that meets the diverse needs of both students and community partners.
Featured chapter themes include Fundamental Skills, Intercultural Competencies, Engaging the Field Experience, Inclusive Iteration, and Evaluating Student Learning. The book consists of practice-based and applied learning constructs that bridge community-based research with engaged learning and design practice. SEED (Social Economic Environmental Design) academic case studies introduce teaching strategies that reinforce project-specific learning objectives where solving social, economic, and environmental issues unites the efforts of communities, student designers, and educators. This comprehensive publication also contains indices devoted to learning objectives cross-referenced from within the book as well as considerations for educational program development in public interest design.
Whether you are a student of design, an educator, or a designer, the breadth of projects and teaching strategies provided here will empower you to excel in your pursuit of public interest design.

Reviews / Votes
"This book fills an important gap for Public Interest Design educators. It includes essays and case studies on design projects at a wide range of scales, prepared by designers that truly understand public interest work. It is likely to become required reading for anyone committed to serving the public through design."John Quale, Chair, Department of Architecture, University of New Mexico
Founder and Director of the ecoMOD Project
"The Public Interest Design Education Guidebook is a practical and detailed collection of essays, case studies, and critical assessment of community-engaged teaching methods and approaches in architecture and design. Faculty, administrators, students, and community members will find inspiration, lessons learned, and practical teaching and assessment techniques to inspire and challenge the learning and teaching of design for the public good."
Liz Kramer, Associate Director, Office for Socially Engaged Practice, Washington University in St. Louis.
"Abendroth and Bell have provided an important and inspiring public interest design roadmap. They use case studies to help others understand the efficacy of diverse strategies in a variety of settings. Effective planning and design become far more impactful through engagement and empathy."
