Studies on open innovation were evaluated together with up-to-date discussions about design and its role in innovation and business environment in general. Since design can take crucial roles in innovation and management, the comparison of design students’ actions in product design courses with probable expectations in the work environment can provide information about if these project courses could act as a preparation for a professional career. The theoretical relation between innovation and design was discussed and was followed by examination of similarities between product design project courses and open innovation environments. Afterwards, a brief field study conducted with third and fourth grade product design students was analyzed to explore any resemblance between their research preferences during product design project courses and open innovation practices. Also, their awareness on the open innovation subject was sought to understand if the possible resemblance was a result of design education’s nature. The results suggest that students’ attitudes during product design project courses are in line with an open innovation concept to a degree, even though their awareness of the subject is low.  \nKey words  \ndesign, open innovation, design education, design thinking, design students  \nIntroduction  \nSince much recent literature describes design as a facilitator of innovation, the relevance of design to current ideas concerning innovation may also be worth exploring. Open innovation is a concept that has received a great deal of attention in recent years that concerns tendencies in the gathering and sharing of knowledge in industry; therefore, the role of the designer in open innovation practices may also be considered.  \nThe relation of design to innovation and managerial activities is frequently discussed in the literature (Verganti, 2009; Norman & Verganti, 2014; Lockwood, 2009; [Cooper et. al](Cooper et. al), 2009; Johansson-Skö[ldberg et. al](ldberg et. al)., 2013) . Scholars maintain that design education has the  \npotential to facilitate the use of designers’ abilities in organisations and industry, and that therefore a more integrated understanding of design capabilities should become a part of design education (Buchanan, 2004; Boyarski, 1998; Owen, 1990) . These studies are of two general types. One concerns the ways design supports innovation activities, and addresses design-driven innovation. The other concerns the use of design in managerial activities and addresses strategic problem-solving through design thinking. The literature suggests that designers, who possess skills and knowledge stemming from various disciplines, may act as supporters and managers of innovation activities in an organization (Buchanan, 2001) .  \nTo explore the role of design in innovation in a more holistic way, innovation models can be investigated. The models relevant to contemporary innovation activities may light up the current role of designers in innovation. Exploring the evolution of innovation processes suggests that recent innovation models support developing information networks and communication platforms to produce an environment that includes more participants (Rothwell, 1994) . The development of information technologies plays a major role in this tendency, as they provide the platform and communication infrastructure for producing a knowledge database.  \nThe principles and methods used to share and gather information in innovation activities have been frequently discussed. Studies have found that the innovation","cbCainoJEoFG7fyG","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainoJEoFG7fyG","pdf",464427,16,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Design as a facilitator of innovation\n## Innovation models and information networks\n## Openness in knowledge sharing\n## Role of design education in professional competencies\n## Study aim and research focus","[{\"question\":\"What is the main purpose of the study?\",\"answer\":\"To identify similarities between design students’ approaches to research and open innovation, and to assess their awareness of open innovation.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the study compare design education with open innovation?\",\"answer\":\"It reviews the theoretical relationship between design and innovation, then analyzes a field study using students’ research preferences in product design project courses.\"},{\"question\":\"What do the results suggest about students’ attitudes and awareness?\",\"answer\":\"Students’ attitudes during product design project courses align with open innovation concepts to some degree, even though their awareness of open innovation is low.\"}]","Exploring the relation between students’research behaviours in project courses and open innovation | PDF",1792089644]
