We aim to create a context for all of us to talk about how we design and set up courses, what challenges we face and how we solve them. The workshop is for people who are interested in the way people teach as well as in what is taught and what resources are gathered to aid the process. During the workshop, we will explore in an interactive manner how constructivist approaches to teaching can support the teaching and learning of participatory design in academic and non-academic contexts. We will also discuss experiences in using recent material such as the new (2012) PD Handbook. We hope that this dialogue can become a regular part of PDC. HOW TO PARTICIPATE Interested participants are invited to submit responses, in the form of a position paper, to the workshop questions (listed in the website), which will be reviewed by the workshop organizers and subsequently shared with participants. Those responses should be based on experience teaching and/or designing classes or workshops on Participatory Design.
