This comprehensive guide is expressly for those charged with leading the next generation of design innovators while also advancing their pedagogy successfully and meaningfully. - Jackie Mallon, Fashion United Full book review is here for reference Prescient in timing, Introduction to Design Education is an enlightening book that discusses many of the reasons why dedicated and advanced pedagogical approaches are more vital than ever in the contexts of the changing design school, student generation and industries. Faerm does a brilliant job of bringing his rigorous and compelling research to us in an approachable yet authoritative book that should be recommended to both new and experienced teachers of design. - Noel Palomo-Lovinski, Art, Design & Communication in Higher Education
