Abstract:
This conference paper reports, empirically, the setbacks and self-doubts that confront design students as they journey toward becoming professional practitioners. There is critical need to elevate well-being as core capacity for complex problem solving in lieu of the systemic expansion of design scope and new defining attitudes to work in the post-covid era. This conference paper further disseminates the emerging concept of ‘designer resilience’ as a new approach to design pedagogy that acknowledges the difficulties of pioneering systemic change.
