Abstract
Industrial Design at Eindhoven University of Technology focuses on designing intelligent systems, products and related services for societal transformation. Our holistic and integrative approach to learning clearly shows in the end-ofterm
assessments. Students are not assessed at the level of curricular learning activities. Instead, the assessment focuses on students’ overall development, which can range from ‘blank’ to ‘visionary’. Key elements of the assessment are the
end-of-term exhibition, a review of students’ showcase, and a meeting between student and assessor. In their interactive and integrative showcase (portfolio) students demonstrate their development as a designer, fitted in with their past and
envisioned future development. In the paper we explain the rationale behind the assessment and illustrate how the assessment works in practice. At the conference we will review our most recent initiative: the first version of our augmented frame of reference.
