Nowadays design, as a discipline, is still in the process of evolving. The consequences of this process can be seen in changes of classical forms of teaching design in higher education. One of the most popular methods of obtaining new ideas of shaping in design is experiment. The authors of the article also consider it to be one of the most effective forms of design education for students. In order to prove it and obtain new forms and methods of design training at the Industrial Design Department of the Institute of Design of the RSU named after A. N. Kosygin а pedagogical experiment was conducted. The experiment in design education was considered as a way to get new ideas in shaping of industrial products. In the course of the pedagogical experiment students used artistic images of wildlife for the formation of design objects based on associative-shaped modeling. According to the results of the pedagogical experiment, a new methodology of educational design in the direction of "Design" was developed, based on the principles of bionic shaping of objects of graphic and industrial design — by the method of associative-shaped modeling. The use of the developed methods resulted in the increase of the level of term and graduation projects of students of the Industrial Design Department, what was repeatedly noted by specialists in the field of design.

The purpose of this research study was to help inform the researcher’s future practice as a teacher on the influence of technology on young learners. The question of inquiry pertained to define how technology has initiated and increased student engagement within their learning, and through this, how technology has specifically influenced the creation of the 21st century learner. By beginning the inquiry through a literature review on the theme of technology and student engagement, the researcher was able to gain an understanding that technology is the motivator for children in developed, and even in undeveloped countries. In order to assess the relationship of technology and student engagement in learning, along with how digital devices influence the creation of 21st century learners, the researcher surveyed a variety of teacher candidates and university students to draw conclusions. From the research findings of the study, the researcher concluded that students were attracted to technology as it is a tool that is convenient in organizing information, and is efficient in making data easier to allocate. Therefore, the skills that technology imparted upon 21st century learners from the findings were allowing students to become self-directed learners, access and, evaluate information through critical thinking and solving data to become more engaged thinkers, and influencing leadership and collaboration skills.

There is an ongoing need to prepare postsecondary educators to use not only 21st century assessment tools but also 21st andragogy/pedagogy that meets the needs of all 21st century learners. This chapter reviews those issues, reviews different aspects and approaches to assessment, and proposes an encompassing assessment framework for culturally responsive, authentic, reflective, ethical, formative, universal, and learner-focused (CAREFUL) assessment. The chapter contextualizes these approaches in faculty development (FDEV) to help “change gears” using data from a FDEV opportunity at a midsized, comprehensive university. The chapter provides several examples of CAREFUL assessment and a discussion of how FDEV can improve student learning and experiences.
