Desire, possibility and pragmatism

Some insights into the needs, wants and wishes of design students

Students of design subjects are expected - perhaps even assumed - to be strongly influenced by their imaginations in developing their independent, self-motivated creative selves.  How far do students feel that there is more that their education, and their interaction with museum collections and resources, could give them to develop their potential? What kind of learning opportunities, activities, challenges and most of all freedom do students desire when given the chance to explore? A number of the CETLD projects examined these issues, including several that were student-designed and run. Did these opportunities, when experienced, deliver what was hoped for? Could these opportunties be built into the curriculum in the future?
