in class
book club!: discuss the politics of design, pp 1–21
review the project brief, considerations, and deliverables.
project work time and/or small group crits as you need.
new work
prep for final presentation and critique for "define / explain".
each student will have 8 minutes total: 3 minutes for the visual/verbal presentation, a couple of minutes to review the booklet, and 3 minutes for peer input.
we will do what i like to call a "crit chain", where one student provides primary input for their peer, then presents their own work. the next student provides primary input and then presents their own work, and so on. the advantage of this is that every student has a chance [requirement?] to participate in critique, to practice being critical and discerning about our design challenge.
comments should focus on the project objectives. how well did your peer
verbally and visually articulate a clear definition of graphic design and design thinking
demonstrate curiosity, wonder, and a sense of play through exhaustive and rigorous design processes
understand basics of primary and secondary research in the pursuit of knowledge
engage in the basic design process [research, ideate, edit, produce] at a basic level
demonstrate clear improvement in physical and digital craft – cutting, sizing, attention to technical & visual details and other project parameters.
