Becoming Lost and Found in Translation

Becoming Lost and Found in Translation is a participatory co-designed research project involving university art and design students and staff investigating how acts of translation can enhance learning and critical thinking. Using our collaboratively constructed design school manifesto as a starting point it has been translated into over 45 languages that are spoken at our university. This paper outlines the initial findings of this project and how it can be used to think about ideas of meta cognition in learning, transitions from one state to another, liberating and decolonising curricula and how translation itself advances thinking in design education.
