| Posted: 09 Apr 2011 09:05 PM PDT David Talbot, MIT Technology Review, 4/6/11 "I think that the current emphasis on STEM—science, technology, engineering, and math—needs a "D," for design. Designers need to learn STEM (where S includes both the hard and the soft, social sciences). But similarly, engineers need to learn D: after all, the point of engineering is to develop things for people and society."-Don Norman "...the creators of good products and services also must have a working knowledge of everything from the technical underpinnings of microprocessors and programming to the policy aspects of information security." -Don Norman RELATED Some of my previous posts mentioning Don Norman and his work: Words of Wisdom from Harry Brignull: UX Roots in Psychology, Design, Information Architecture, and so much more!
