The Future of Design Education with Dr. Ana Rita Morais

Talk Paper Scissors

In this conversation, design education leader, Dr. Ana Rita Morais, shares her vision for the future. She gives us a peek into the ways in which paradigm-shifting tech like AI can be integrated into educational spaces, as well as the evolution of her large-scale calendar project supporting BIPOC students in need. The conversation continues with Ana Rita’s vision of future learning environments and how the traditional classroom continues to expand into new spaces, helping students embrace curiosity, develop critical thinking skills and improve their communication skills. Ana Rita shares what excites her the most – and what scares her the most – about the future of design education, as well as how the myriad of free design resources online is (or isn’t) changing formal means of design education. Lastly, you’ll learn about a big, important project Ana Rita’s embarking on in this space. This is the second episode in a 3-part series, co-hosted by Diana’s friend and colleague, Nat Lumby.
