Title: Autodesk Education Continuum: Interactive Curricula Model for Technical Excellence and Creativity

Instructor: Stephen Stott

Course Description: This panel class describes a proposal for an Autodesk Curriculum Model (ACM) that spans an education continuum from secondary, career and technical to higher education. The proposed ACM is built on an interactive learning platform to engage a contemporary student audience in an exciting learning environment and offers pedagogical theory combining technical competencies in Autodesk® software with creative and sustainable designing strategies. The ACM considers creative thinking with technical tools to erode barriers between the arts and sciences to develop student-centered project-based learning with an interdisciplinary structure. A bridge between Autodesk, academia, and industry is described by populating the ACM through design projects with manufacturing partners. Contributors from America, Canada, Germany and the UK bring evidence of how the ACM is scalable and transferable across education sectors and learning cultures. Engineering, architecture and automotive design form the context of the presentation to describe how Autodesk software workflows aligned to curriculum and pedagogy bring an irresistible education solution.
