1.3 DEFINITIONS
Here, I provide some definitions of the research to explain both my position, but also the context of the research: The design context shifts towards ecology; this is a Wicked Problem. It demands that designers change their current role and start cooperating in trans-disciplinary settings like a City Lab. Consequentially, it requires future design students to be trained a different set of skills. Unlearning is an essential part of the pedagogic framework. In the next chapters, I will explain this and build arguments regarding the research question. But firstly, I will start with a definition of these terms and how I will continue to use them in this thesis.
