Brief: Speaking From Experience - Feedback

Has a problem been clearly defined? (What is it? Is it a genuine problem? Is it appropriate?)

- The problem is to help students become a graphic designer in Leeds/ a guide to being a good designer. There is a good reason for this product, it will be very beneficial. It is appropriate for first year BAGD students.

- Yes, first year graphic design students not knowing where to go in Leeds. It is definitely a genuine problem and would be really useful.


Is the audience being taken into consideration? (Is the tone appropriate for the audience? How will the audience engage with it?)

- Yes, first years are unsure where to go and it is specifically focussed on their course too. A book/index.

- Yes it is relevant and appropriate to the graphic design students and would be very useful to know, it works as a pocket size book.


What further research is required/would be beneficial? (What/Where/Who/When? Practical/Theoretical/Both?)

- Survey/Questionnaire to highlight the problem primarily. What existing booklets are missing Eg. information they are not addressing. Perhaps a bit of illustration/imagery? COuld maybe develop it into a website, or interactive disc? Physical map? Stickers on the floor? Research front of book design.

- Could be useful to look at map; if someone doesn't know where they are going, what would be the starting point? College? Not so many streets? How would students get a book and what would make them take one?


What methods are being used to document the research/ development? (Is the research appropriate?Are they effective?)

- Sketchbook, sheets, lists; effective show of development, quick, easy access.

- There is a lot of relevant research, maybe a bit of primary research to help with directions to the places.
