Description
This document reports findings of the project Designing for learning in The Cube, conducted 2018-2020 at QUT. Data was gathered in two stages – a survey and interviews .
The Cube is currently only used in QUT teaching in limited ways, primarily as a poster presentation device. It is used more as an outreach programme to schools.
The study participants identified the following benefits of integrating The Cube into Higher Education curricula:
•Visualisation
•Experimentation
•Motivation
•Collaboration
•Adaptability
The participants identified the following potential strategies for integrating The Cube into Higher Education curricula:
•Community hub
•Resource centre
•Showcase
•Link to other organisations
•Crowd sourcing
•Templates and wizards
•Research tool
•Instructional tool
•Social space
Hurdles academics raised, influencing their ability to use The Cube in their teaching:
•Lack of knowledge about its availability and the process for using it
•Lack of creative ability
•Lack of finances
•Lack of time
Pragmatic considerations are identified when incorporating The Cube into university teaching and an example activity given. Some theoretical foundations are outlined.
A best practice guide has been developed, drawing on these findings, for use by QUT academics and the Cube development team.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
