Assignments

• POST
  1. Finish your less lo-fi prototype and document it with an image and/or text explanation. Is this a looks-like, feels-like, or works-like prototype?
  2. Read One Designer Shares: How to Use Design to Tell a Story OR Watch/Listen to at least one of the TED: Storytelling Videos and post your response. Please answer and be prepared to discuss next week:
     • Did this article/video give you new ideas for how you will tell the story (frame/message) of your prototype?
     • If so, what are the new ideas?
     • If not, why?
  3. (If applicable) Constant input/output. If you’re merging your prototype into your constant input/output, MARK THIS ON YOUR POSTS.
• BRING your prototypes/sketches/project files/materials etc to show and work on in class.
