An example of synthesizing empirical research on design learning and teaching is available below.
the work brings together empirical research on student design behaviors - and lays out a framework for moving students from beginners to informed designers across 9 kinds of design activities. the work then connects to empirical research on ways people have tried to support this kind of learning. It's very comprehensive - but is not the full story (e.g., social interaction in design, etc.).
