within the basic teaching of communication design, the objective is to explore and make represented a complex reality, which
is layered over time according to approaches and experiences
very different.
In addition to regulating the design of a framework communication and analysis of trends
latest in research methodologies for teaching and learning, there is attempt to construct an interpretation, a summary recurring elements in the teaching of basic communication design. The framework is represented by the Laboratory of Visual Communication within the first year of the local scenery and
International Private Schools and Universities of Design. In summary, this work aims to make express a range of proposals for methodological basic training of communication design,
systematize a number of different perspectives ordered and framed within some basic guidelines.

Women in the Media: Communication Design, Research and Experimentations

It is common opinion that in our everyday life we encounter images that depict female figures as degrading and stereotypical models. The problem is not only connected to the idea of an imaginary male spectator that has to be pleased, it is also an issue that concerns the cultural and social dimension of Communication Design. As designers, we have to intervene in the design project with a critical realism within the social context, we have to work from a multidisciplinary perspective to develop new tools, new formats, and new artefacts that are able to change the ways of seeing, consuming and distributing images. This could be a starting point to generate positive actions, lifelong learning and active encouragement in our society. In this paper we present the ongoing research and experimentation activities of the research group“dcxcg” (communication design for gender cultures) that operates, from the perspective of design, with the goal of offering a critical view of the forms of representation of gender (i.e., female, male), but also to support the proposal of new models of communication in the context of education

This design perspective, strictly connected to emotional and existential values, has as a result the production of tools and artefacts that are able to influence or transform real life (the material) and human relationships (the immaterial). The issue of women refugees’ reception, their practical needs and the problem of multilingualism constitutes the core of our project for the Sammartini Polyfunctional Centre of Milan. The final output of the research project (communicative artefacts designed to support the refugees throughout their period of stay at the centre) is the result of a combinat...
