- W2127867401 abstract "Background: Design practice has a significant role to play in inclusive design (Imrie and Hall, 2001). Engineers need to be conscious of the impacts of their design decisions and how these can limit or exclude certain user groups from a technology (Clarkson et al 2003). By changing their design they can enable use and access for a larger number of people in a more equitable way (Coleman, 2005). The construction of a 1/10th scale model of a communal toilet block was used to introduce this concept to first year engineering students to assist in understanding the impact of their work on users and social inclusion. Purpose: What was the impact of a hands-on scale-model build activity on first year engineering students' view of inclusive design? Design/Method: The focus of the activity was a 2-hour workshop session. Small groups (4-5 students) identified their perceived requirements for multiple user groups such as people who have a visual impairment or physical disability. They then constructed a model of the toilet with facilitators challenging students' designs and underlying assumptions throughout the process. A survey was administered upon completion of the activity to around half the entire class of 210 first year students to gather details on students' understanding and learning from the activity, and from which to draw implications and conclusions. Results: The activity led almost all students to indicate they had a better understanding of the requirements of inclusive design although there was significant variation in students' understanding of what this term meant. Almost half the students indicated the activity also changed their view of engineering and design. Improvements to the structure of the workshop and support material and access to a wheelchair for students to use were identified as potential improvements. Conclusions: The use of a practical hands-on build activity enabled the complex topic of inclusive design, and indeed engineering design in general, to be introduced in an approachable and enjoyable manner for engineering students. There was variation in students' understanding of the term with many focused on the design and user requirements aspects rather than the social inclusion and access outcomes. Further discussion of social inclusion from design and service-learning style programs are required to build on such introductions to allow the students' views to develop further." @default.
