Design Culture, Immersion, and Viso-Spatial Learning: Enhancing Transfer of Training

Abstract

Scholars have long identified transfer of training as an important component in the model of training and development. In this research, we explore qualitative results from a series of educational initiatives that use design thinking pedagogy to teach collaborative design processes. We conclude by identifying particular aspects of immersion and viso-spatial techniques which hold high promise in helping to solve transfer of training problems.
