• Empathy in design education is complex, stemming from its roots in both design research and practice, with indirect links to design education. This complexity is heightened by the ill-defined nature of design, and this study uses a scoping literature review to map empathy across three key dimensions: educational interventions, aspects, and contexts.

• This article explores the use of co-creation sessions as a method in the early stages of development projects to validate stakeholder needs before the project begins. Co-creation sessions foster collaboration among stakeholders through shared knowledge and exercises, helping to build a collective understanding of the problem and potential solutions.

• The research underscores how instructional design significantly impacts students' knowledge construction during online discussions. Designs featuring teacher-led summaries, Socratic questioning, and problem-solving projects enhance learning, while barriers like time, cultural differences, and peer unfamiliarity hinder it; culturally responsive, inclusive designs are recommended to foster active learning participation.

Rapid-prototyping an instructional design intervention for online course development. 2018 IEEE Conference on E-Learning, e-Management and e-Services (IC3e), e-Learning, e-Management and e-Services (IC3e), 2018 IEEE Conference On , 1–5. https://doi.org/10.1109/IC3e.2018.8632647

• Recent student protests in South Africa demanded a decolonized curriculum and free higher education, prompting universities to mandate online courses to mitigate disruptions. As many academics lacked instructional design skills to develop these courses, an intervention using the rapid prototyping model was introduced to enhance their capabilities in instructional design, online facilitation, and educational technology, with the majority of participants reporting increased confidence in course development and student communication.
