Application of Axiomatic Design for Project-based Learning Methodology

Abstract Project-Based Learning is a method based on constructivist finding, its application is centred on project development as the learning tool catalysing knowledge discovery. Project-Based learning have been traditionally designed and implemented on a know-how and trial-and-error basis, but tasks and decisions taken during the design phases of the training modules have a substantial effect on its quality and outcomes. Axiomatic Design can contribute to improve the outcomes opportunities and the process efficiency by identifying where complexity exists within the requirements and design activities that underpin the model. In this study, the Axiomatic Design method is applied to link learning outcomes of Lean Six Sigma training with all the teaching processes and the availability of resources. As a conclusion some improvement suggestions are made to optimize the learning and teaching methodology in order to maximize the learner outcomes.
