Design Challenges for Graphic Design 1
100 Points
A designer does not always work alone, actually nobody works alone in this world. Just about every job you have you will work with groups of people. This is a great skill to learn and probably best learned in school. Working in groups is excellent because it will allow you to collaborate with ideas of several minds instead of your own. Each person in you group can contribute their strengths toward the project and together you will be able to create a project that is much better than what you can create on your own.
Objectives:
You will work with a small design team of three or less. Each person will need to contribute an equal amount of work to the project. You will establish a group of people you want to work with. Your group will select one of the design challenges and complete your project by December 9th. Part of this challenge is to learn to work with other people, incorporate everyones ideas into the project, utilize each persons strengths and also manage your time to complete the project on time.
Requirements:
-Work successfully with a group to solve one of the design challenges
-Complete your project on time for full credit
-Be a contributor to your project for the entire duration of the project.
-Evaluate yourself and your group members using the rubrics.
