Abstract: As educators increasingly adopt design-based methods outside of design disciplines, we wondered about the impact of incorporating these approaches on students’ and teachers’ educative experiences. This track includes eleven articles that explore how children, youth, and teachers in schools and universities have taken up design thinking and other design-based models. The track also offers two design-based teaching models presented as workshops. In the following text, we present arguments that justify the incorporation of design in general education – both at the school and university level –, synthesize some empirical evidence from the scientific literature, present the contributions gathered in our track, and offer some questions to guide future research.
