An outline of how you might present the findings in order to persuade stakeholders to act on the results. (4.2) Explain the importance of using an appropriate mix of diagrammatic and narrative formats (4.3)

Design: Design must be innovative as there is no point in reinventing the wheel. Met4Labs is different.

Discusses working with the client and any ideas and conflicts when drawing up the design and how often was the brief drawn upon.

This project plan will explain the overview of CP1, the target audience, and the goals for this project and when and how I plan to meet those.

1. An introduction that defines a problem, stresses its importance, and offers a brief description of the proposed solution. An analysis of the problem, discussing its causes and its effects. A detailed plan that shows step by step how to solve the problem. A costs benefits analysis that that measures the benefits of the plan against its costs. A conclusion that looks to the future and stresses the importance of taking action.

For this document to be of technical excellence, it must first have the eight measures of technical writing. One of the measures is honesty and this is important because the document should not mislead the audience. Three measures that go along together is clarity, comprehension, and conciseness because a document should be easy to understand

Many of the course goals were encountered while completed this assignment. These included increasing audience awareness, practicing important types of technical communications (memos and instructions), creating documents that solve problems through communication using relevant sources, and learn use of design document principles to enhance usability and overall effectiveness. Each of the course goals played at least some part in successfully completing this

Provide each member an abstract of what will be discussed before for review before the meetings (Roberts, 2010).

As a team, we agreed that this topic, though very controversial, would provide the necessary elements needed to formulate a design project of interest. The team’s ability to think outside the box and engage in creative thinking allowed us to put our strategy into motion. Framing changes our direction of thinking by challenging our thought process and redefining the important aspects of how we perceive a certain situation, (Edmondson, 2012). By the second week of this project, the team had picked an organization, identified a topic of interest and developed a method of application. In order to maintain consistency in progress we decided to align areas of interest with strong points of each member of the team. The team agreed that it would be advantageous to assign specific responsibilities, based on proficiency and technical skills. By defining these areas, the team was able to develop a practical approach to completing the project. As we follow our vision we need to remember to enable others through support and encouragement, (Kouzes and Posner, 2012). This is essential in building confidence within the group enhancing the one team one-mission concept, (Kouzes and Posner, 2012). As a group, we identified certain members of the team that demonstrated strong writing skills, which would be essential in developing the narrative portion of the project. The narrative was divided into three parts to include introduction, body and

In the Blog post, the writer analyzes how the methods in which an individual communicates constantly evolves over the course of the design process. There are five specific target audiences for how one writes, speaks, and visual conveys an idea in an architectural setting. First is the self, the originator, designer, and author of the idea, which contains little to nothing in relation to persuasion, because an idea is only written then as being a solution to a design problem. Next comes those that are collaborated with, the mode staying the same (using sketching and writing) with an introduction of an additional layer of

This month’s course has been a learning process for me. Even though it has been a stressful couple of weeks dealing with the thesis presentation, I have been able to organize and evaluate my previous projects. In connection with becoming a better designer, I have recognized how important solving problems, researching, implementing ideas, and creative thinking can communicate and persuade towards a targeted audience. Furthermore, the main takeaways I gained from this course are creating and identifying an effective visual presentation, how to connect with the four DLOs, and learning my strengths and weaknesses as a designer.

“So, you invest a fair bit in the design to make it a winning design rather than what’s under the skin and can’t be seen. As it’s a competition, a lot of the people who are looking to score your presentation are looking at the design and the impact of the design and how people will interact with that design rather than looking at the base data of the energy it is going to use... Which is sad

“Over the last fifteen years or so there has been a steadily increasing desire for design to prove its commercial value, to demonstrate to clients that their investment is tangibly worth it.” Design Council 2010
