Imaging in Education: imaging in preliminary-level studio design technology projects

The Imaging in Education project is a teaching-based research project funded by the Eastman Kodak Company and the University of Brighton. The project is examining ways in which the teaching and learning of technology is integrated with studio design and ways of intensifying reflective practices, in particular those that would be supported by using image-based processes for learning. The project also examines other teaching and learning activities and environments. In particular: teambased learning and the Intranet as a teaching and learning environment. This article describes the theoretical and practice-based context for the project, the student project and some of the recent outcomes.
