Supporting Documentation and Evaluation of Student Progress in Digital Fabrication

Supporting Documentation and Evaluation of Student Progress in Digital Fabrication

Akter, Nasrin ; Hossain, Nijar ; Sánchez Milara, Iván ; Georgiev, Georgi V. ;

Full Paper:

Documentation is a common practice that constitutes an integral part of the design process in design education; for example, setting out the details of the fabrication process while designing a prototype in a digital fabrication laboratory (Fab Lab). In this article, we introduce a documenting application called Protobooth Oulu, with different features for documenting and evaluating student work. The application allows remote and distributed work on digital fabrication projects. This tool adheres to existing guidelines for Fab Lab users in creating, managing, and updating personal or group projects. Based on the submission of the students’ weekly documentation, this application implements questionnaires for evaluation and focuses on a strategy of giving timely feedback to students in the context of digital fabrication education in Fab Lab. The ultimate objective of this tool is to enable educators to provide meaningful feedback that is visible to both the instructor and students.
