Led by Professor Sarah Dyer, this session is a change to explore human-centred (HCD) approach in education. HCD is an umbrella term which includes things like design thinking and service design.
HCD asks us to spend more time exploring problems then we often do, with a focus on having empathy with the people effected and understanding the problems in context. Rather than adopting one high stakes solution it asks that we prototype and text possible approaches with users. I have worked in a variety of contexts with HCD. I will reflect on these and introduce some possible ways in, for if you are interested in trying this approach. There is no need to know anything about HCD before the session
The workshops will also be useful for colleagues applying for Advance HE fellowships. For more information please visit the University of Manchester Advance HE Fellowship Scheme website
