Description
Summary:When discussing the Education 4.0 concept and the role of technology-based learning systems along with creativity, it is interesting to explore how these are reflected as educational innovations in the case of design education. This study aims to provide an overview of interactive technologies used in product design education and examine their integration into the learning process. A literature search was conducted, analyzing scientific papers to review relevant articles. The findings highlight several categories of technologies utilized in design education, including virtual and augmented reality, robotics, interactive embedded systems, immersive technologies, and computational intelligence systems. These technologies are primarily integrated as supportive tools throughout different stages of the design process within learning environments. This study suggests that integrating such technologies alongside pedagogical methods positively impacts education, offering numerous opportunities for further research and innovation. In conclusion, this review contributes to ongoing research in technological advancements and innovations in design education, offering insights into the diverse applications of interactive technologies in enhancing learning environments.
