Role: Contractual Lecturer
Duration: 2021-Ongoing

Project Overview
Since 2021, I have been teaching a course in the spring term at the Estonian Academy of Arts. Specifically, I lecture and mentor digital product design bachelor’s students.

My Role as a Mentor
My role as a design mentor is to introduce students to speculative design methods and approaches. During the course, students work in teams to create future narratives and speculative objects based on their research. I mentor them throughout the course in research, brainstorming, narrative writing, and speculative object creation.

See examples from students:

Innovation Without Design

Protecting One’s Bio-data

Additionally, I co-authored an article about various design topics including a case study in which I propose a toolkit to designers. This toolkit employs methods and approaches of speculative design.
