ABSTRACT
Learning Model studio has the main features of first-hand experience or learning by doing. This article reports the initial results of the exploratory research related to student-centered learning (SCL) in Industrial Product Design studio education in the School of Creative Industries, Telkom University. SCL is defined as an approach to empowering students in their learning. Although studies on the adaptability of this concept in education have increased, there are few studies conducted for the benefits of product design education from a studio design perspective. This article defines SCL as an approach to increase student independence in the learning curve, especially in decisions making related to design subjects using a summative and formative method. It aims to experiment with the SOLE (studio-oriented learning environment) model learning that reshapes lecturing and peer review inspired by a theory developed in University Putra Malaya (UPM). The results of the research are the assessment of knowledge of the supervisor, supervisor attitudes, and the studio administration systems are good category. The study will benefit educators in the product design field to help students to build unique background skills. Further, it lets students generate learning opportunities and reconstruct knowledge dynamically in an open-ended learning environment to implement a design studio.
