Despite being rooted in the US context this book transcends geographical boundaries. It is written with great insight, scholarship and understanding of design, teaching, learning. But more than this it is written with genuine care and affection for both the subject and the emerging generation of designers and their teachers. This alone makes it a pleasure to read and a book that will enrich all educators in the field of design education. For those new to teaching design to
undergraduates it is almost essential reading and will inform their career for many years to come.

Prescient in timing,
Introduction to Design Education is an enlightening book that discusses many of the reasons why dedicated and advanced pedagogical approaches are more vital than ever in the contexts of the changing design school, student generation and industries.
Faerm does a brilliant job of bringing his rigorous and compelling research to us in an approachable yet authoritative book that should be recommended to both new and experienced teachers of design.

It is a must-read for anyone teaching design today. The book has great potential to transform, for the better, the ways in which design schools and their constituents operate, plan, and remain relevant in the years ahead.
