The Design Decision Pathway encourages ownership of the design process by making key decisions about focus, working style, idea development, and iteration.

Great design comes from autonomy, iteration, and real-world thinking. Community of Design enables learners to develop and share ideas in a way that reflects authentic design practice.

The Design Decision Pathway supports learner-led design in navigating the design process through structured choice and autonomy. Rather than following a fixed sequence, learners make intentional decisions about focus, working style, idea development, and iteration. This approach reflects real-world design practice, encouraging independent thinking, collaboration, and iterative development.
The pathway is flexible and cyclical, allowing learners to revisit stages, refine ideas, and respond to feedback throughout their design journey.
