Take Home Exam #2 - Debrief

There was some confusion about my instruction to use the visual strategies from the professional designs for your design. I don't want to create the same problem for the final take-home so I'm using this exercise to explain myself better and ask for you input.

Watch these four short videos. Watch for something in each video that stands out for you - something you learned or something you agree with or disagree with. Write that down:

VIDEO 1: Afghanistan redesign, part 1:

VIDEO 2: Afghanistan redesign, part 2:

VIDEO 3: Afghanistan redesign, part 1:

VIDEO 4: Afghanistan redesign, part 2:

Answer these questions:

1. To help me understand why I wasn't entirely successful in communicating the idea of emulating visual strategies, tell me which of these seem to explain how you interpreted the instruction:

a. I fee like I did understand the instruction.

b. I missed that bit of instruction.

c. I saw that instruction, but I interpreted it differently (how did you interpret it?)

d. other (tell me what you think that "other" was)

2 To help me to understand what to do to enable you to be more successful for the final take-home, tell me which of these feels true for you and why:

a. I understand now and I think I'll be able to do that for the final take-home.

b. I understand, but that seems too technically or conceptually difficult.

c. I understand what you're saying, but I don't understand the point (if I get a lot of this response, I'll do more to explain my point. Any comments about what you don't understand will be helpful)

d. I don't understand (it will help me if you can explain what seems unclear)

e. other

Hand in: Submit a comment that includes the 6 elements I ask for above (4 comments - 1 for each video, 2 answers - 1 for each question)
