Soren,
We have been trying to make a shift from form focus to strategy focus
with form focus at CCS in product design. How do you define "Interface
focus"?

Hi Tena,
What an interesting debate (as always)! I am a Ph.D. candidate at
Stanford
and have spent the last half year interviewing students and
professionals on
how they present design concepts. Using a semi structured interview
format
with questions based on IDSA award application and Designworks
sustainable
management system and process I am starting to see patterns. As
designers
mature there seems to be a shift from interface focus to strategy and
philosophy focus in there concepts descriptions. I would be very
interested
to hear if anybody else has similar or different experiences.
Yours,
Soren

Hi Alan,
I agree that a way of compiling anecdotal information would certainly
shed
some light on how educators see undergrads' application of
talent/critical
thinking as applied to design, as they arrive and progress through
education, and then beyond to the workplace. Does anyone have any
statistics
or compilation of anecdotal evidence in this area?
