DESIGNING A NEW CURRICULUM: COMPETENCY-BASED ON DESIGN EDUCATION

Competency-based learning is oriented to educate by the implementation of challenges where students must demonstrate that they have achieved and generated knowledge through the development of applied skills. Design education has been significantly transformed in the last ten years thanks to the integration of new perspectives and seeking a more forward-thinking vision. This shift is motivated by the recognition of Design's desire to develop a most responsible approach. In response to the need for a curriculum renewal based on competencies and a future-oriented vision, this paper outlines the process of creating a Competency-Based Learning curriculum that has been designed over five years framing the Tec21 "Design Programme," which reflects an approach to shaping the future of design education in Mexico. © 2023 Proceedings of the 25th International Conference on Engineering and Product Design Education: Responsible Innovation for Global Co-Habitation, E and PDE 2023.
