Interrogating Futures in Industrial Design Education
Analyzing today’s needs and demands became insufficient to be abreast with the time. Hence, to keep up with the change or to achieve the desired change, futures studies is undertaken in areas such as economics, sociology and politics. The change rate upon time and designers’ need to keep up with it highlight the importance of futures studies at design studies. This paper aims to contribute future vision to undergraduate industrial design students, by forming a methodology based on futures studies literature, to be used in long-range future-oriented design (LFD) projects in undergraduate industrial design education. The study was based on action research scheme and designed in two cycles. In the paper, the results of these two cycles will be shared and the developed methodology will be introduced with its tools.
