This study examines the process and outcome of a life design group intervention with grade 9 students. In a sample of 139 participants (91 girls and 48 boys), a quasi-experimental design was applied to analyse the intervention's effectiveness at fostering vocational identity, career adaptability and career decision-making self-efficacy. Seventy and 69 participants were included in the experimental and control groups, respectively. Outcome measures were applied at the onset of the intervention, at the end of counselling and three months after the last session. A focus group involving 17 participants was conducted to determine participants' perceptions of the intervention process and outcome. The findings support the empirical evidence on the effectiveness of life design group-based interventions to foster vocational identity, career adaptability and career decision-making self-efficacy. The focus group participants evaluated the intervention as useful by fostering reflexivity and a sense of direction. Overall, the findings suggest the relevance of life design practices in educational settings to foster reflexivity and, therefore, to facilitate students' career construction. The research implications of the findings are also discussed.

Computer-aided assessment is an important tool that reduces the workload of teachers and increases the efficiency of their work. The multiple-choice test is considered to be one of the most common forms of computer-aided testing and its application for mid-term has indisputable advantages. For the purposes of a high-quality and responsible assessment process, it is necessary to provide a sufficiently extensive databank of test items, especially when a large number of students is involved in the examination. In this paper we deal with the issues of automatic generation of such test items for undergraduate mathematics midterm assessment. We describe the techniques and further circumstances related to designing test items, including the incorrect answers offered. The text also includes a case study dealing in detail with the creation of test items for a particular type of mathematical problem. Finally, efficiency evaluation of automatic item generation in comparison with paper-based questions is presented. Although the results of the article are based on experience influenced by the local conditions of the institution concerned, the ideas suggested remain generally applicable.

Dread is an unfortunate, yet all too common occurrence in the classroom. It often arises when a student has little motivation toward a class or its content. As an instructor of a traditionally &quot;dreaded&quot; class (Design History I), my goal was to seek ways to increase student motivation for the topic of design history and historic preservation. To do so, I designed a service learning project that incorporated Deci and Ryan's Self-Determination Theory (1985, 2000), and its constructs of: autonomy, competence, and relatedness. During the project students worked with the local City Planner on designing a series of informational placemats to be used in downtown restaurants during Historic Preservation Month. Students were tasked with searching the town for buildings that merited inclusion, then photographing, and documenting their history. To do this, they worked in groups and applied for specific roles on the project (i.e. Editor-in-Chief, Copy Editor, Graphic Editor, or Information Scout). Following project completion, I collected surveys and student reflections to understand the project's successes, failures, and any resulting changes in student motivation. This article describes my process of designing the project, its implementation, and my student's perceptions following its completion. It is hoped that this design case may provide instructors in &quot;dreaded&quot; courses tools to increase long-term student motivation.

This design case introduces a design and development process of theories from environmental psychology, humanities, and social sciences as heuristic thinking devices to measure human-centered design solutions. The pedagogical review of the traditional studio design process revealed obstacles as students translated their research and program to the development of the design. They created the latter without applying their theoretical understanding of research conducted on the human-environment relationship. Given this challenge, the authors evolved a revised design method utilizing theories to afford an empathetic design response. Students in two interior design studios adopted this approach to develop hypotheses for the design problem, and later the theories informed guidelines for cultivating a more empathetic design response. Project analysis by authors, and reflection statements from the students, capture the value of theory as thinking devices to assist directly in their work by improving their position and power, prompting a more imaginative and generative ideation process. The role of this design case is to acknowledge the role of theory as a heuristic device in order to generate, develop, and support the advancement of interior design as a discipline through interaction, mediation, and discourse.

A local professional organization for interior designers issued a student design competition for a community cultural center to celebrate and teach others about a specific culture of the student's choosing. Culture was broadly defined beyond race, nationality, religious, and social beliefs to include any group with shared interests. Students were encouraged to select a culture they might 'admire' and want to learn more about. The premise of the project was well intentioned, however the brief embodied outdated notions of culture and contained language which was arguably insensitive. Adding these issues to underlying problems of 'pick-a-culture' projects, my first inclination was to decline to participate. However, at a time when the COVID-19 pandemic exposed racial disparities in the US culture and economy, I recognized the critical importance of bringing conversations about race, privilege, stereotypes, appropriation, and advocacy into the classroom through reading, critique, and discussion. This paper raises multiple questions about the role of design, design education, and inclusion that surfaced through the project and identifies my own faults in the process. I question: who is allowed to design for 'others', was this an appropriate opportunity for minority students to use their own voice, did I imbue my white guilt into the class? I will also discuss how the intention of design as problem solving surfaced as power and privilege in conceptual development.
