The Temasek Design Workshops Series 2006
Not sure what design education is all about? Some secondary students got a taste of design life in a series of fun hands-on workshops. For three weeks from Oct 30 2006 to Nov 17 2006, the Temasek Design School took design to the doorstep of some secondary schools! From animation to fashion design, these workshops gave a foretaste of the Advanced Elective Modules to be offered by the Temasek Design School. Focusing on the practical and hands-on nature of the discipline, the workshops gave students an insight into the different design disciplines and an idea of what learning design at the Design School might be like.
The workshops were conducted from Oct 30 2006 to Nov 17 2006. Interested?
