abstract
Background At present, the design education of universities is undergoing a lot of changes according to the new paradigm of social change from education focusing on the traditional formative expression which was applied from the early 20th century. Especially, as the integrated design education and convergence education with other majors are carried out frequently in order to cultivate future talents, it is urgent to set direction of design education appropriate to the future reality of universities in Korea. Methods According to this background and necessity, this study examined the latest research topic of design education, analyzed its contents, and looked into research trends on the goal and changes in contents of design education. This study was carried out by the literature review method, focusing on total 151 academic journals in Korea. Based on these derived three core keywords-basic, creativity, convergence, the research subjects were selected through a third analysis on total 30 articles (10 articles for each core keyword) made by experts in design education. Result The result of this study shows that the main topic is ‘curriculum’ focusing on formative expression in ‘basic design’, ‘improvement’ of creativity based on design in ‘creativity’, and ‘integrated educational direction’ focusing on design and engineering in ‘convergence’. Conclusion In addition, research on the latest design education in domestic universities is gradually undergoing changes from basic design focusing on formative expression to the interest in improving creativity and to the integrated education with other disciplines. It is also found out that researches are seeking to changes into education linked to humanities and engineering beyond education and studies in the detailed major of a single design discipline.
