Abstract
The development of digital technology has changed the way users interact with products and forced industrial design educators to rethink the role of design education with respect to both the integrity and suitability of current design curriculum. This study is sought to figure out a better way for teaching/ learning Interaction Design in the discipline of Industrial Design with considerations to the nature of interaction design and students’ learning mode. A newly created interaction design methodology will be introduced in this paper, and the case study on the application of this approach to a graduate school level interaction design course should explain how this methodology can be manipulated in the development of an interaction design, making teaching/ learning Interaction Design more effective and enjoyable.
