Book excerpt: It is an honor and privilege to welcome you to the 7th South East Asia Design Research International Conference. The conference's theme, "Improving Professionalism and Reflective Thinking through Design Research," invites us to reflect on the current educational challenges, e.g. globalization and industrial revolution 4.0, and transform them into opportunities through design research. It acknowledges the need to develop our professionalism so that we can proactively contribute to the advancement of educational science and praxis. It challenges us to re-thinking the design research as a method to make learning and teaching innovation possible, but also as a paradigm in building our capacity for innovation. Yogyakarta is an artsy and historical city which serves as a fitting cultural, social, political, and economic milieu for the conference. The tagline, "Jogja Istimewa," itself shows how the city has special values to be explored and experienced, and we encourage you to absorb the city's abundance: The Kraton, the cultural and political heart of the city; Fort Vredeburg museum; Malioboro road; Dipowisata urban tourism, to name a few. The perfect ambience of Yogyakarta will provide us with a convenient space to interact and exchange ideas with colleagues as a means of professional learning. Our goal is for you to get new ideas, tools, and materials from the conference which will contribute to your professional development. The variety of sessions, workshops, and social events will give you opportunities to connect with friends and colleagues to expand your networks. We are excited about the keynote and invited speakers. We believe they will share challenging and innovative ideas about education. This conference is the result of the hard work, support, and dedication of a number of parties. We wish to thank all the committee members who together make the conference possible. The committee has been working throughout the year to propose sessions, review a record number of submissions, answer queries, arrange the schedule, and response to last-minute requests. We also want to thank Sanata Dharma University; Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education of Indonesia; Sogang University and SEAMEO QITEP in Mathematics for their contribution to funding the conference.
