Course Content

In this workshop we introduce you to the design-based approach and present a selection of tools used by designers to structure processes. We will also do a range of activities together to apply some of these tools and reflect on how they can help us address inclusion issues we are facing in our own teaching practice. Design tools that we introduce and practice in the workshop include “speaking rules” that can be employed to redefine the social roles of students in course work and class discussions and pushing a more equal distribution of speaking time among students. We will also work with problem-framing, to first re-design our challenges before trying to create the optimal conditions for inclusion in the business school.

After the workshop, participants should be: 

· Better able to help students with questions of philosophy of science and methodology

· Better able to guide students in discussions of quantitative research design, data collection, analysis and interpretation

· Better able to articulate the relevance of philosophy of science and methodology for business school projects
