11/4 Class Follow-up

Good morning everyone, and sorry this is a little delayed.


What’s due for next week:

  • Your Data Visualization assignments are due at the beginning of the next class! Please post to the blog throughout the week to show progress and get feedback from your classmates. Also comment and give your classmates feedback. This only works if both are happening.
  • If you are doing the extra credit process book, remember that it can be any format and I decided not to include a template. I wanted to re-iterate what you should include:
    • Creative brief: a brief description of the assignment, and questions or hypothesis you posed going into the project.
    • Research: include any research or data collection you had to do for the project.
    • Inspiration: source any images or other pieces of information design that inspired you.
    • Development: include sketches, thoughts, variations/iterations, and any complications while creating your design. I recommend saving different versions as you design so you can see a progression of the design being created.
    • Conclusions: Final thoughts and observations you made based on the final design.
    • I have a few process book examples in the flat-file drawer if you want to take a look. One is for a map project (your next assignment) and the other is a history of aviation process book.
  • Please read the chapter Color and Information from Edward Tufte’s book Envisioning Information. I emailed it to all of you and it’s also in the Readings folder in Google Drive.

Reach out if you have any questions, and stay warm!

Feedback for Data Collection Project

Heya, I’ve mostly finished a spread and the opening of my Data Booklet. The Bar Spread has only Saturday and Sunday Left and in the Other Spread I’m going to make Icons to represent each app under the notifications list.

Please let me know what you think and any feedback, comments, critique and questions you have.

Thank you!

This is a spread so there will be the binding in the middle.
