Entry #5 - Success Project - The Design Brief
Sunday, September 20, 2009
Entry #4 - Succeed Project - Areas of Interaction
Entry #3 - Success Project - Guiding Questions
Entry #2 – Success Project – Design Task
My design task was to examine a poster. I worked in a group to gather ideas and make conclusions. The group used questions, such as, What features do you like/dislike about the design? Or how has the poster been laid out and why? These questions helped gather ideas
on the meaning of the poster and what it is trying to represent. After gathering ideas and conclusions, we had to use one IB profile word to create our own picture to represent the word. The task was to take a picture to symbolize the word Communicator.
