Abstract

The learning of design within a Higher Education Chinese institute is renowned to focus on the teaching of techniques and skills, with associated processes to achieve a predetermined outcome. As students enter transnational education institutes prepared to learn skills through this rote memorization to achieve a level of expertise that requires no diversification they may encounter a difficult transition to independent experimentation or creative thinking. (Michael: 1998,BIS:2013) Although planning for outcomes is an essential tool for curriculum building (Butcher: 2006) within the context of design the outcome may be measured against a variable criteria that combines independent higher level skills in practical and innovation rather than predetermined methods.
