Introduction of the Group Project: Client-Based Information Design. Choose a client/topic that you may be interested in and sign-up for it. Groups will be assigned based on interests. There should be no more than one graduate student per group.
Due Today
- Initial Draft (Deliverable 2) of Project 1 due at the start of class for peer review. Your document should be in the form of a single PDF file containing the example for analysis and the parts you've completed thus far.
As a Group
- In groups of three, share your initial drafts. Each Reader should read two drafts, then complete the Peer Review of Individual Projects form (attached below) for each and send it to the Author. Allow 15-20 minutes for each form. When finished, gather as a group to share oral feedback on each Author's draft.
For Tuesday, February 19
- Continue work on Project 1: Qualitative Issues: Perceptions, Conventions, Proximity. Review Chapter 2 in Designing Information as you build your analysis. Remember that an analysis is not (strictly speaking) an evaluation but an elaboration of the features/parts/elements of the design and delivery of information.
