Interaction Design Education Summit
25-26 Feb 2023 + Zürich, Switzerland
Interaction design is in a state of constant and rapid transition. This may be due to the relative immaturity of the discipline, whose origins in principle go back only thirty years, or to working with rapidly evolving materials and ever-new technical possibilities and challenges. Until now, the discipline has largely focused on the design of interfaces between people and devices and their experience and meaning.
Now, however, the discipline is evolving toward designing with hybrid physical and digital materials, the emergence of an increasingly complex and fluid digital ecology of digital services and hardware platforms, and the growing proportion of autonomous and semi-autonomous systems that change their behavior over time and with use. How will this change our discipline, let alone its educational potential?
As part of Interaction Week 2023, we brought together educators, learners, practitioners, and businesses at the Education Summit to hear talks, participate in workshops, and debate in panel discussions about the potential developments in our discipline. In short, two days full of ideas and inspiration.
