"COGNITIVE AGENCY: VISUALISATION OF RESEARCH, REFLEXIVE PRACTICE, AND CRITICAL THINKING" Research Workbook

This Research Workbook examines the concept of cognitive agency as a dynamic interaction between thinking, making, and reflecting. It explores how visualization can function as a research method, how reflexive practice deepens creative inquiry, and how critical thinking structures the designer’s engagement with knowledge production. Through theoretical discussions and case studies, the text situates cognitive agency as both a methodological and ethical framework for contemporary design education and research.
