Abstract

Project-based learning (PBL) is an educational approach that actively involves students in tackling real-world complex problems in an interdisciplinary way, emphasising critical thinking, collaboration and problem-solving skills. In this paper, we share our empirical experience of teaching three different modules of an Interaction Design program: Screen Design, Generative Design and Experience and Behaviour Design within the context of Project-Based Learning. We report on what we consider successful cases, as well as significant barriers encountered by the students. We then discuss some of the unsolved challenges, providing our perspectives for teaching interaction design with PBL.
