During this phase, students will each develop an abstract for the theme of Volume 38 of The Student Publication. Additionally, students will develop a personal essay to facilitate thinking and conversation about relevant and current topics in design.
Read: Norman, Don. “Writing as Design. Design as Writing” in Design for People.
Write a 250 word abstract on the subject that most resonated with you as a theme for Volume 38 of The Student Publication. In addition to the explanation of the theme, this abstract should include a title, and a short quote that is relevant to the theme (include the attribution for the quote!) Include a short list of 2 or 3 potential contributors for this theme. If they are not household names, include their title and a bit about who they are.
How do we want people to respond?
Working as 4 groups, write 4 extended abstracts on the theme you signed up for: Analog, Outsider, Curiosity or Fluidity.
Do the theme-related reading Tania assigned to your group. (TBD by Tania by end of the day August 31).
Need to get confirmation from contributors by October 01.
