The View of the Child: Explorations of the Visual Culture of the Made Environment
The aim of the research cluster was to explore design from the point of view of children and young people (0-18 years) in learning contexts. It brought together expertise from across academic disciplines, designers, stakeholders and users to explore existing and new material and methodologies to shape research that focuses on the relationship between the developing child, educational practice, and the implications of these factors on design.
The research cluster focus was on the influence of design through attention to the visual context with particular reference to the built environment, classrooms and non-traditional learning spaces. The term ‘visual culture’ was applied to reflect our intention to explore the cumulative, tacit and specific effects of the visual foci. The overarching aim is to provide policy makers and practitioners with a basis for determining a design strategy aimed at enhancing teaching and learning.
