• TITLE: Applying Design Thinking in Ecotourism Curriculum Design: The Educational Design Ladder

  AUTHORS: Qingfeng Song, Alaa Nimer Abukhalifeh

  KEYWORDS: Ecotourism, Design Thinking, Pedagogy, Curriculum Design

  ABSTRACT: The design thinking approach transforms student’s learning process to connect with real-world experience, making connections between knowledge and improving critical thinking and problem-solving capability. Previous research has focused on what design thinking is taught (content) and how it is taught (learning modes and assessment). However, there needs to be an integrative approach in the context of ecotourism education. Therefore, applying Wrigley and Straker’s Educational Design Ladder mode, this study develops an Ecotourism Design Thinking Curriculum framework to combine the ecotourism content, teaching/learning mode and assessment.
