Issues and Findings from Two DEcades of Research and Development
av Richard Kimbell och Kay Stables
From Chapter 10 (Processes, Activities and Tasks)
s.220 “As Gorman and Carlson point out, the essence of inevntion seems to be ‘the dynamic inteplay of mental models with mechanical representations’.
…
“It is our contetion that this inter-relationship between modelling ideas in the mind, and modelling ideas in reality is the cornerstone of capability in design and technology. (Kimbell et al. 1991, p.21)”

s.221 det finns olika typer av modellering
- Visual modeeling – through sketches
- Written modelling – through annotaions
- Verbal modelling – through discussion
- Numerical modelling – through calculations
- Material modelling – develeoping 3D representations
s.222 “The conduct of design activity is made possible by existence in man of distinctive capacity of mind … the capacity for cognitive modelling. … (The designer) forms images ‘ in the minds eye’ of things and systems on intractable problems by transforming them into terms of all sorts of course, where appropriate, language and notion. … These externalisations capture and make communicable the concepts modelled. (Archer and Roberts, 1992, p.4)”

s. 226-227 Handlar om “Clients as a developmental force” vilken kan vara värt att fördjupa sig i. De har refereat till Kimbell, 1994, p.242
s.235 Där de beskriver hur man kan anv sig av två olika 4-stegs skalor för att beskriva den lärandes aktivitet. Där de refererar till Chapter 7 “Wholes and parts”
- en skala som beskriver om den lärande är stark på att arbeta med helheter
- en skala som beskriver om den lärande är stark på att arbeta med delar
s. 236 Här fortsätter de att diskutera omkring “WHoles and Parts”. Tydligt är att mycket av detta arbeta baserar sig på en kollega till författarna – Tony Lawler och det arbeta som han har lagt ner. Se
