The Rolling Discussion Technique for engineering design activities

The purpose of this study is to develop the Rolling Discussion Technique and validate the developed technique. The Rolling Discussion Technique is based on the concept of collective intelligence which facilitates creative problem solving activities by sharing ideas and thoughts of large group of members within the class. As an internal validation method, expert review and usability test were conducted and as for the external validation method, field evaluation was used to partially validate feasibility and educational effectiveness. As a result, it has been found that the Rolling Discussion Technique suggested in this study can be utilized in engineering design curriculum as a discussion technique.
