Week 1: Overview

What will you design?

The Design Project is the description and plan for a short unit of learning (2-3 weeks of online learning) that we ask participants to define in the first 2 weeks of the workshop. More information about the process of defining and developing your design project can be found in the Design Project section of the Workshop Handbook..

Getting started

You may begin FLO-Design with a specific project in mind (and a learning audience). We ask that you be prepared to describe / define the scope of your design idea (at least in a first draft) by the end of Week 1 (in the Week 1 Studio Forum)

There will be opportunities to clarify your intended project with other members of FLO-Design and the facilitators. 

If you're interested in working on your design collaboratively, you can connect with others through the Participants list or post a notice in the Week 1 Studio Forum.

If you don't have a design project topic in mind, spend some time reviewing the following pages. Contact your facilitators if you have more questions.
