ARD501: Contextualising Design
2454 words

In this blog I will evaluate my learning experiences of each contextual and critical lecture in trimester one of my second year studying Illustration, Graphic Novels and Children's Publishing. Over the next three months, I will be attending lectures twice a week on design themes, I will then write my thoughts about each one here.

This should help me consider my work methods, contextualise my thinking and analyse my thought processes. I need to critically evaluate, analyse and synthesise appropriate critical and theoretical texts.
  • To evaluate is to gain insight into existing initiatives (to reflect on ideas)
  • To analyse is to break something into smaller topics to better understand them
  • To synthesise is to combine two or more things to make something new
By the end of this semester, I will have formed my own opinions on topics that interest me and I will have formed my own design manifesto.
