Self-Regulated Design Learning: A Foundation and Framework for Teaching and Learning Design reframes how educators in architecture, landscape architecture, and other design disciplines think about design pedagogy. Self-Regulated Design Learning (SRDL) synthesizes two important concepts, design learning (DL) and self-regulated learning (SRL).
SRDL rests upon a foundation of educational theory and research related to constructivism, social cognitive learning, and self-regulated learning. SRDL provides a pedagogic framework based on seven key characteristics and a three-phase learning process that guides project-based learning and uses goals to monitor progress.
Self-Regulated Design Learning: A Foundation and Framework for Teaching and Learning Design includes many examples and applications to help design educators encourage their students to become more actively engaged participants in the design learning process.
