| INDS 3B31 Activist Design 0.50 Credit(s) Studio |
|
| Prerequisite: 9.0 credits, including all first-year requirements (5.0 credits) |
|
| Students will design from a critical need, identify a specific problem and use ethical, environmental and responsible practices to create solutions that will improve the lives of their client, ‘the other 90%’. Students will work in teams, strengthening their collaboration skills and will be encouraged to expand them beyond their class, taking advantage of the diverse nature of the OCAD U student body and other outside human resources. These are complex problems that cannot be solved in isolation. The students will learn the importance of designing with cultural context in mind and be encouraged to solve problems that will empower their ‘clients’ with the means to improve their own lives with solutions created specifically for them. |
