Enhancing the quality of interior design education through improved data management processes

Abstract

In the shift towards integrating information technology in higher education, this study focuses on enhancing interior design education through a novel data management model that supports both in-person and online learning. By tackling the inefficiencies of traditional data handling and leveraging advanced technologies, we've crafted a solution that merges a Learning Management System (LMS) with cloud storage, aiming to streamline the access, storage, and sharing of educational content. Tested in interior design courses at a Hanoi architecture university, the model demonstrated notable improvements in data management, fostering greater collaboration and interaction among students and teachers, and thereby, elevating educational quality. The findings suggest that this model not only addresses current educational challenges but also opens avenues for the broader application of IT in interior design education, indicating a promising direction for future enhancements in educational data management.
